Calculation of Air Content (P/V Plot)

This document contains the results of an air content calculation using the pressure-volume (P/V) plot method for a crude transit pipeline section. Water was incrementally added to the test section at increasing pressures up to 26 bar. The theoretical and actual water volumes intake at each pressure were recorded and plotted on a chart. The wall thickness, external diameter, and internal volume of the test section were also provided.
