Extraction Rate during Drop Formation

simulation and experimental studies for prediction mineral scale formation in oil field during mixing of injection and formation water

abstract: mineral scaling in oil and gas production equipment is one of the most important problem that occurs while water injection and it has been recognized to be a major operational problem. the incompatibility between injected and formation waters may result in inorganic scale precipitation in the equipment and reservoir and then reduction of oil production rate and water injection rate. ...

Prediction of Mean Drop Size in Pulsed Packed Extraction Columns

Numerical study on drop formation in single hole in solvent extraction

In the present study, computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation were performed to investigate the drop formation in single holes in a solvent extraction. The effects of various operating and design parameters on the drop formation were investigated in order to optimize the drop formation. Simulation results indicated that CFD simulations can give useful information about the drop formation ...

Mean Drop Size and Drop Size Distribution in a Hanson Mixer-Settler Extraction Column

A Brief History of Drop Formation

Surface-tension-related phenomena have fascinated researchers for a long time, and the mathematical description pioneered by Young and Laplace opened the door to their systematic study. The time scale on which surface-tension-driven motion takes place is usually quite short, making experimental investigation quite demanding. Accordingly, most theoretical and experimental work has focused on sta...
