Abstract:
Method and system for clearing a pipe system from its contents, the pipe having a proximal end and a distal end, the method including providing an air supply to the pipe system at the proximal end by applying an air pressure decreasing from an initial pressure as the bulk of the pipe contents get discharged gradually at the distal end for obtaining a contents flow in the pipe system. The method further includes determining a volume of air supplied to the pipe system by the air supply, determining an estimated contents travel speed from the volume of the air supplied to the pipe and regulating the air supply to the proximal end of the pipe for obtaining a predetermined pipe contents travel speed using the estimated contents travel speed.

Claim (Index 14):
The system according to  claim 13 , wherein de the volume determining means comprise:\n a first pressure sensor for measuring a pressure in the compressed air container; and a second pressure sensor for measuring a pressure at the proximal end of the pipe system; wherein the volume determining means are arranged further for calculating the air volume supplied to the pipe system from a pressure difference in the air container between an initial pressure and a pressure in the air container after supplying air from the air container to the pipe system, the air container volume, and a pressure at the proximal end of the pipe system after the supplying of the air into the pipe system.
