The slug flow pattern is one of the most common gas-liquid patterns in multiphase transportation pipelines, particularly oil and gas industry. This can cause severe problems for industrial processes. Hence, a detailed description spatial distribution different phases pipe needed automated process control calibration predictive models. In this paper, deep-learning based image processing techniqu...

Abstract. In this work we deal with the no-slip drift-flux model for gas-liquid flow dynamics. We focus on a situation where there is a free interface separating the gas-liquid mixture from a pure gas region which takes a positive pressure p∗. This situation is highly relevant for gas-liquid flow in the context of wellbore operations. Previous works have assumed that there is vacuum, i.e., the ...

A trickle-bed reactor (TBR) when operated in a trickle flow regime reduces liquid resistance to mass transfer because a very thin liquid film is in contact with the gas phase and results in improved gas–liquid mass transfer compared to continuous stirred tank reactors (CSTRs). In the present study, continuous syngas fermentation was performed in a 1-L TBR for ethanol production by Clostridium r...

In this tutorial the fundamentals of non-boiling heat transfer in two-phase twocomponent gas-liquid flow in pipes are presented. The techniques used for the determination of the different gas-liquid flow patterns (flow regimes) in vertical, horizontal, and inclined pipes are reviewed. The validity and limitations of the numerous heat transfer correlations that have been published in the literat...

Two-phase flow measurement has attracted a major interest in the past four decades due to its wide range of applications in industry. This paper introduces a new method to separate the gas phase from the liquid phase through a blind source separation algorithm, without a separate device, based on the assumption that the two phases are separated and their independence is reflected in the statist...

residual gas saturation is one of the most important parameter in determining recovery factor of water-drive gas reservoir. visual observation of processes occurring at the pore level in micromodels can give an insight to fluid displacements at the larger scale and also help the interpretation of production performance at reservoir scale. in this study experimental tests in a glass micromodel w...
