Synergi Gas - Time-Varying

Time-Varying

The Synergi Gas Time-Varying module is a software tool that allows you to perform a series of consecutive steady-state analyses to simulate the changes in your network over time. This functionality was developed with underground storage caverns and gathering wells in mind but can be applied to many types of gas systems. The software offers a broad selection of features essential to successfully handling the large volume of information a time-varying model can create.

What you get

Software based on field-proven calculations of Synergi Gas
All supplemental controls and features you need to perform extended period simulation
A more recognizable, customizable graphical environment focused on productivity
Prediction of system behaviour based on starting conditions
Powered by best-in-class steady-state engine

With the Time-Varying module you can

Easily model your system over days, weeks, months or years
Link individual steady-state simulations through time, providing time-varying continuity needed for tasks such as inventory tracking and compressor maintenance scheduling
Determine system adequacy to meet anticipated requirements
Determine compressor fuel requirements over an extended period of time, storage well or field injection and withdrawal requirements and schedules

Model Builder

The Model Builder module in Synergi Gas provides seamless integration with your GIS data and streamlines the process of building and maintaining Synergi Gas models by automating data import, converting GIS point data into linear facilities, and mapping source attributes to model data, thereby enhancing model efficiency and reducing maintenance time.

Unsteady-State Module

The Unsteady-State module in Synergi Gas is a powerful tool for transient analysis, enabling you to manage linepack, simulate line breaks, gas blowdowns, and other dynamic events in gas networks. It allows for the modeling of complex pipeline systems, including compressors and storage fields, and simulates changes in gas composition and network conditions over time, facilitating volumetric or thermal balancing and the operation of facilities during simulations.

Customer Management Module

Customer Management Module in Synergi Gas integrates with your Customer Information System (or customer billing system) to calculate temperature-dependent and base load factors, assigns these loads to the model, and enables display of customer information in the model.

Area Isolation Module

The Area Isolation module in Synergi Gas assesses the hydraulic impact of emergency or planned outages. It is used for emergency planning, maintenance, and other operational needs, allowing users to analyze the impact of isolation on network pressure and flow, generate detailed reports, and identify affected customers, all within a user-friendly interface.

Regulator Station Module

The Regulator Station module in Synergi Gas is designed to protect distribution systems from overpressure conditions. It supports monitoring and reporting on safety equipment, ensuring compliance with regulations, and offers features such as an extensive equipment catalogue, analysis of relief valve piping, and generation of detailed station reports to enhance safety and reliability while reducing maintenance efforts.

Automated Design Module

The Automated Design module in Synergi Gas enables you to optimize network efficiency and keep costs down. It helps in designing new systems or upgrading existing ones by analyzing pipe size options based on loading conditions, material costs, and installation costs, ensuring a cost-effective and reliable network design. 

Optimization Module

The Optimization module, or Optimizer, in Synergi Gas is designed to optimize fuel consumption and costs for gas transmission pipelines. It analyzes pipeline throughput, identifies bottlenecks, and optimizes compressor operations to maximize system throughput or minimize fuel costs.

Facilities Management Module

The Facilities Management module in Synergi Gas synchronizes gas distribution network models with GIS updates without requiring a full rebuild. It allows users to compare models, review changes spatially, and selectively integrate updates, streamlining maintenance tasks and enhancing model management flexibility.
