Abstract: A commonly used premise in pipeline hydraulics where the work of friction forces performed at the movement of real gas in the gas pipeline completely turns into thermal energy is verified in the article. By means of the integral definition of Clausius entropy, it is shown that the premise of the conversion of friction forces into thermal energy of gas flow is justified with an acceptable accuracy for engineering applications in relation to the one-dimensional formulation of the task regarding the determination of the longitudinal temperature field of gas.

Keywords: gas transportation, gas pipeline, one–dimensional model of flow, nonequilibrium thermodynamics, entropy, thermal balance.
