However, these separators create setback in terms of its efficiency. As an alternative, supersonic compact wet gas separator have been designed in Universiti Teknologi PETRONAS Gas Separation Research Center (UTP GSRC) which uses supersonic flow to separate natural gas and free water for gas transmission pipelines. For the preliminary design, it is important to determine the flow behavior according to the design of the separators. The results can provide information on whether the design can be accepted or improvement should be taken into consideration. It is therefore an objective of this paper to numerically simulate and analyze the correlation between variations of pressure against temperature distribution in the separators design. From the initial pressure variation against temperature results, it can be concluded that the initial pressure ranges from 5 MPa to 6.7 MPa are the best to be used for achieving better separation efficiency. © (2014) Trans Tech Publications, Switzerland. date: 2014 publisher: Trans Tech Publications Ltd official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-84921466566&doi=10.4028%2fwww.scientific.net%2fAMR.1043.258&partnerID=40&md5=4023ec20713edf12b5bb5bbdb157a643 id_number: 10.4028/www.scientific.net/AMR.1043.258 full_text_status: none publication: Advanced Materials Research volume: 1043 pagerange: 258-262 refereed: TRUE isbn: 9783038352853; 9783038352853 issn: 10226680 citation: Ahmad, M.F.A. and Mohd Hashim, F.M.
