Gas-liquid separator is an important surface equipment in oilfield development. Improving the separation efficiency of great significance to overall economic benefit oilfield. Spiral a high device that has been widely used, but at present, there are not enough studies on number spiral turns and pitches. In view this problem, paper analyzed gas–liquid separators with different pitches via fluent...

Microparticle separation and concentration based on size has become indispensable in many biomedical and environmental applications. In this paper we describe a passive microfluidic device with spiral microchannel geometry for complete separation of particles. The design takes advantage of the inertial lift and viscous drag forces acting on particles of various sizes to achieve differential mig...

Nowadays, most oilfields have entered the high water cut stage of waterflood development. The importance oil–water separation technology becomes more obvious. Gravity is one commonly used treatment techniques for produced fluid. gravitational separator has a large processing capacity and wide application range, but its structure relatively simple efficiency gradually falls behind to meet curren...

Optimizing the desired properties for stretch monolayer separators used in Lithium-ion batteries has been a challenge. In the present study a cellulose nanofiber/PET nonwoven composite separator is successfully fabricated, using a wet-laid nonwoven (papermaking) process, which can attain optimal properties in wettability, mechanical strength, thermal resistance, and electrochemical performance ...

the performance of the electric submersible pump (esp) significantly affected by gas void fraction (gvf). thus, using of a rotary gas separator (rgs) is a suitable solution for this issue. the performance of the rgs is function of different parameters such as geometry of impeller, rotating speed, boundary conditions, media viscosity and gvf. in this study, the influences of gvf, viscosity, and ...

In this research, inorganic material type and content influence on coating of commercially available polypropylene (PP) separator were studied for improving its performance and safety as lithium ion battery separator. Heat-resistant nanopowders of Al2O3, SiO2 and ZrO2 were coated using polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) binder. Coating effects on the separators morphology, wettability, high tempera...

Natural gas hydrate (NGH) is widely considered as an alternative energy source due to its tremendous reserves, cleanness and high density. During the exploitation process, discharging gas-liquid phase surface for separation not only affects pump performance but also increases space requirements of offshore platform. Taking NGH production test data in South China Sea example, a downhole spiral s...
