To estimate the compressibility factor ofgas-oil, a cylindrical test tube isprovided, made of a ceramiC material. Acertain volume of gas-oil is poured inthe test tube, and a weight is placedover it to reduce its volume. From theobtained data, determine the gas-oilcompressibility factor. Solution:K=1621.7 MPa. Data: - Test tube: interiordiameter D=10 mm. Weight: m=6.5 kg.- Gas-oil: density (at 1 bar) =892kg/m3; initial height H=200 mm; heightreduction H=0.1 mm.

Given that a cylinder contains gas-oil and it is pressurized by adding mass to the piston. Mass…
