Multiphase Flow Measurements: Point･Plane･Spatio-Temporal, and Furthermore

Multi-component Multiphase Flow

An axiomatic foundation for models of multi-component multiphase porous flow appearing ubiquitously in the engineering literature is developed. This unifies and extends various disparate and empirical formulations appearing in the literature. Constitutive restrictions are derived from an appropriate statement of the second law of thermodynamics, and the corresponding dissipation inequalities es...

1 Introduction to Multiphase Flow

In the context of this book, the term multiphase flow is used to refer to any fluid flow consisting of more than one phase or component. For brevity and because they are covered in other texts, we exclude those circumstances in which the components are well mixed above the molecular level. Consequently, the flows considered here have some level of phase or component separation at a scale well a...

Fluid Mechanics and Multiphase Flow in Pipelines

Experimental validation of multiphase flow models and testing of multiphase flow meters: a critical review of flow loops worldwide

Around the world, research into multiphase flow is performed by scientists with hugely diverse backgrounds: physicists, mathematicians and engineers from mechanical, nuclear, chemical, civil, petroleum, environmental and aerospace disciplines. Multiphase flow models are required to investigate the co-current or counter-current flow of different fluid phases under a wide range of pressure and te...

Flow in porous media pore-network models and multiphase flow

In the last 3 years there has been a huge increase in the use of pore-scale modeling to study multiphase flow and transport in porous media. Starting from single pore models of fluid arrangements, computations of relative permeability, interfacial area, dissolution rate and many other physical properties have been made. Combined with a realistic description of the pore space, predictive modelin...
