Abstract
During the carbon-dioxide capture and storage(CCS) process, $CO_2$ is captured from large point source, and then injected and stored in stable geological structure for thousands and more years. Inside the captured $CO_2$ flow, various impurities, such as $N_2$, $O_2$, argon, etc, are included inevitably. These impurities affect on the CCS process on various aspects. In this study, we designed and built experimental facility to evaluate the various impurity effect on the $CO_2$ pipeline flow, and analyzed the effect of argon ratio and pressure variation on the pressure drop of $CO_2$ flow. By comparing experimental data with 4 kinds of pressure drop model, we figured out and recommended the Cicchitti's model since it showed most accurate result among compared models in this study.
