contents This work presents a novel, dimensionless model that results in a dimensionless algebraic equation that can be used to quantify the pressure drop associated with the steady state, isothermal flow through a straight, horizontal pipeline, of a compressible gas mixture whose thermodynamic behavior is described for comparison purposes by ideal gas (IG) and nonideal gas generic cubic (GC) equation of state (EOS) models. A solution strategy, that uses the aforementioned dimensionless algebraic equation, is then presented that quantifies the pipeline pressure drop for hydrogen containing mixtures. Two case studies are presented to illustrate the pressure drop dependence on the hydrogen mole fraction of a binary, methane hydrogen mixture, and a natural gas hydrogen mixture with a real life natural gas composition containing eight species.
