Correcting a Coriolis Meter for Two Phase Oil & Gas Flow
نویسنده
چکیده
It is also common for flowmeters to be installed downstream of a two or three phase separator. If the well conditions change or the separator has been incorrectly sized, then it is possible that the oil liquid outlet may have some gas carry under. The effects of gas entrainment on the output of ultrasonic and Coriolis meters has been reported previously [1] [2]. It is already known that gas entrained in flowing liquids has the potential to lead to a substantial mismeasurement of the flow.

A Sub-Optimal Look-Up Table Based on Fuzzy System to Enhance the Reliability of Coriolis Mass Flow Meter
Coriolis mass flow meters are one of the most accurate tools to measure the mass flow in the industry. However, two-phase mode (gas-liquid) may cause severe operating difficulties as well as decreasing certitude in measurement. This paper presents a method based on fuzzy systems to correct the error and improve the reliability of these sensors in the presence of two-phase model fluid. Definite ...
