The paper deals with the verification of three pipeline models: the non-linear distributed parameters model, the linear distributed parameter model and the linear lumped parameters model. All the models were comparatively verified on the basis of the measurements on a real pipeline.

The paper deals with different pipeline models and their simulation. First, a nonlinear distributed parameters model is derived, which is then linearised and its transfer function is obtained by a Laplace transformation and corresponding initial and boundary conditions. The pipeline is...
