Abstract

In this report a lumped transfer function model for High Pressure Natural Gas Pipelines is derived. Starting with a partial nonlinear differential equation (PDE) model a high order continuous state space (SS) linear model is obtained using a finite difference method. Next, from the SS representation an infinite order transfer function (TF) model is calculated. In the end, this TF is approximated by a compact non-rational function.
