The Indication of Two-Phase Flow Pattern and Slug Characteristics in a Pipeline Using CFD Method
Multiphase flows are commonly encountered in oil and gas industries. The transport of multiphase flow causes the formation of slug, the increase of pressure drop and the possibility of phase changes therefore, a set of simulation runs was performed to predict flow regimes in a horizontal pipeline, and the results were compared with the Baker chart. The effects of small downward inclinations of ...
متن کاملExperimental study of two and three phase flows in large diameter inclined pipes
Steady-state and transient experiments of water–gas, oil–water and oil–water–gas multiphase flows were conducted on a transparent 11 m long, 15 cm diameter, inclinable pipe using kerosene, tap water and nitrogen. The pipe inclination was varied from 0 (vertical) to 92 and the flow rates of each phase were varied over wide ranges. Fast-acting valves enabled the trapping of the fluid flowing in t...
متن کاملModelling of Gas-Liquid Two-Phase Flows in Vertical Pipes using PHOENICS
The PHOENICS code is employed to perform numerical simulations of gas-liquid two-phase bubbly flows in large vertical flow channels. Air-water and steam-water flows in large diameter pipes are simulated using the built-in two-fluid option of the code where liquid and gas are modeled as two interacting continua. The code is utilized in conjunction with advanced twophase flow models, accounting f...
متن کاملThe Finite Element Analysis for a Mini-Conductance Probe in Horizontal Oil-Water Two-Phase Flow
Oil-water two-phase flow is widespread in petroleum industry processes. The study of oil-water two-phase flow in horizontal pipes and the liquid holdup measurement of oil-water two-phase flow are of great importance for the optimization of the oil production process. This paper presents a novel sensor, i.e., a mini-conductance probe (MCP) for measuring pure-water phase conductivity of oil-water...
متن کاملModification to mass flow rate correlation in oil-water two-phase flow by a V-cone flow meter in consideration of oil-water viscosity ratio
Oil-water two-phase flow widely exists and its measurement is of significance in oil well logging, oil transportations and etc. One of the techniques in common use in oil-water two-phase flowrate measurement is the Differential Pressure (DP) meters combining a theoretic model connecting the mass flowrate of the mixture with the differential pressures generated by the throttling element inside t...
