Experimental verification of a one-dimensional steady-state bubbly flow model is presented. For initialisation of the liquid-phase concentrations of gas species, a formulation for modelling the time-evolution of the concentration of dissolved gas species in the circulating liquid of a hydraulic air compressor (HAC) was developed and integrated with the steady-state bubbly flow model. Observations from experiments conducted on a pilot scale HAC are presented employing CO₂ as a tracer gas. The composition of the input gas inducted by the pilot HAC was deliberately varied by mixing different controlled amounts of CO₂ gas while continuously monitoring the gas and liquid phase concentrations of CO₂ at key points in the HAC process. Predictions of the concentration of CO₂ in the compressed gas produced by the pilot HAC and the circulating liquid at system equilibrium were in good agreement with measured values. Concentrations of CO₂ measured in the gas above the tailrace water level were elevated above background levels and responded in accordance with the input CO₂ gas mass flow and liquid CO₂ concentrations indicating exsolution of gas from the liquid as predicted. Observations of the pH of the circulating liquid identified the bicarbonate equilibrium as the likely mechanism for ${\mathrm{CO}}_{2_{(\mathrm{aq})}}$ production not captured by the model which caused the model to under predict ${\mathrm{CO}}_{2_{(\mathrm{aq})}}$ concentrations for experiment set points with ${\mathrm{CO}}_{2_{(\mathrm{aq})}}$ concentrations above 140 ppm.
