AN ANALYSIS OF THE MOTION OF PIGS THROUGH NATURAL GAS PIPELINES
The dynamics of propelling a pig through a natural gas pipeline, using the gas being transported, are analyzed. The gas flow is assumed to be isothermal, quasi-steady, and one-dimensional. The pig is modeled as a cylinder. For the cases considered, the pig may either obstruct the pipe and allow no g...
