Study on the Physical Properties of Hydrogen-Doped Natural Gas Based on Equation of State

As a zero-emission green clean energy, hydrogen energy is an important means to achieve the strategic goal of carbon neutrality and an important part of the energy Internet. Hydrogen-doped natural gas transportation is an economical and feasible scheme to realize long-distance transportation of hydrogen by using the existing natural gas pipeline network. However, the addition of hydrogen to natural gas will cause obvious changes in the physical properties of the transport medium, which will have a certain impact on the transport characteristics and flow measurement of the pipeline. The main problem is that we need to understand the changes of physical properties after natural gas mixed with hydrogen to ensure the safe operation of natural gas pipe network mixed with hydrogen. Based on this situation, this paper takes BWRS equation as the theoretical basis, selects typical natural gas temperament, calculates and solves the physical parameters of natural gas under different hydrogen blending ratios, and compares them with the standard physical reference values. After verification, the results are used to explore the physical properties of hydrogen-doped natural gas with hydrogen blending ratio, temperature and pressure as variables. The relative average absolute value error (RAAD) of the calculated physical properties of hydrogen-doped natural gas in this paper is less than 2% compared with the reference value of standard physical properties, which can provide theoretical data basis for studying hydrogen-doped pipeline transportation, ensuring pipeline transportation safety and hydrogen-doped natural gas metering.
