A technique is presented for calculating the transient flow in high pressure transportation systems where both simple systems (without compressors) and systems with compressors have been taken into consideration. A partial differential equation characterizing the dynamic gas flow through a pipeline and a numerical scheme for its solution are considered. A method of computing node pressures is also characterized.
