Abstract

When considering cost-optimal operation of gas transport networks, compressor stations play the most important role. Proper modeling of these stations leads to nonconvex mixed-integer nonlinear optimization problems. In this article, we give an isothermal and stationary description of compressor stations, state MINLP and GDP models for operating a single station, and discuss several continuous reformulations of the problem. The applicability and relevance of different model formulations, especially of those without discrete variables, is demonstrated by a computational study on both academic examples and real-world instances. In addition, we provide preliminary computational results for an entire network.
