Abstract
A numerical benchmark study has been performed, comparing results from the OLGA pipeline simulator to data obtained using the multi-stage (MUSTA) centred scheme. The case considered is a depressurization of a pipeline. Care was taken to compare the same flow model and thermodynamic equation of state. The two methods appear to converge on fine grids, but on coarse grids, the MUSTA method is more accurate.
