Natural gas (methane, = 10 -5 kg/m s) must flow in a pipeline between compression stations.

Question:

Natural gas (methane, μ = 10-5 kg/m s) must flow in a pipeline between compression stations. The compressor inlet pressure is 250 kPa, and its outlet pressure is 1000 kPa. Assume isothermal flow at 25°C. The pipe is 6-in, schedule-40, commercial steel. The mass flowrate is 2 kg/s. What is the required distance between pumping stations?
