Solid-liquid mixing studies in lab-scale flotation tank using electrical resistance tomography

Tank Leak Detection Using Electrical Resistance Methods

Two field experiments were performed to evaluate the performance of electrical resistance tomography (ERT) as a leak detection method under metal underground storage tanks (UST). This paper provides a summary of the field experiments performed under a 15 m diameter steel tank mockup located at the Hanford Reservation, Washington. Two different leak events were created. About 3800 liters of sali...

A Study on Liquid-liquid Mixing in a Stirred Tank with a 6-Blade Rushton Turbine

The turbulent flow field generated in a baffled stirred tank was computed by large eddy simulation (LED) and the flow field was developed using the Sliding Mesh (SM) approach. In this CFD study, mixing times and power number have been determined for a vessel agitated by a 6-blade Rushton turbine. The predicted results were compared with the published experimental data. The satisfactory results ...

Measurement of Liquid Velocity and Liquid Distribution in a Packed Bed Using Electrical Resistance Tomography

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. ...

Focusing inversion techniques applied to electrical resistance tomography in an experimental tank

We present an algorithm for focusing inversion of electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) data. ERT is a typical example of ill-posed problem. Regularization is the most common way to face this kind of problems; it basically consists in using a priori information about targets to reduce the ambiguity and the instability of the solution. By using the minimum gradient support (MGS) stabilizing fu...
