Abstract: The design of a modern gas measuring and regulating station includes the study of many details of all degrees of importance. Many of the resulting choices evolve from engineering judgement-some just happen because of the standard sizes and shapes of fittings that are available-some because of local tradition or precedent. A station design can be considered successful, if after construction there are no surprises: the maximum and minimum flow rates are measured and controlled accurately, the capital and operating costs are in line with those estimated for the station, the noise and vibration levels are not excessive. Unfortunately, as loads and pressure drops increased the traditional methods of designing stations did produce surprises. In some cases the station would not deliver the maximum flow rates for which they were designed. In others the station pressure drops were excessive. In still others noise and vibration levels caused neighbors to complain and appurtenances to the pipehne to fail.
