Multiphase Flow-Enhanced Corrosion Mechanisms in Horizontal Pipelines
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Previous work has demonstrated the mechanism of enhanced corrosion in slug flow due to entrained pulses of gas bubbles (Gopal et al., 1997). Corrosion rate measurements have been made at ...
The Study of Dynamic Slug Flow Characteristics Using Digital Image Analysis—Part II: Modeling Results
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A definition is given for a Froude number in the liquid film ahead of the slug and it is seen that slug characteristics are strongly influenced by the Froude number. The mechanisms in the ...
The Study of Dynamic Slug Flow Characteristics Using Digital Image Analysis—Part I: Flow Visualization
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper reports the application of novel, digital image analysis techniques in the study of slug flow characteristics, under dynamic conditions in two-phase gas-liquid mixtures. Water and an ...
Effect of Drag-Reducing Agent on Slug Characteristics in Multiphase Flow in Inclined Pipes
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The effect of drag-reducing agent (DRA) on multiphase flow in upward and downward inclined pipes has been studied. The effect of DRA on pressure drop and slug characteristics such as slug ...
Investigation of Flow Regime Transitions in Large-Diameter Inclined Pipes
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Multiphase oil/water/gas flow regime transition studies are carried out in a 10-cm i.d., 18-m long pipe at inclinations of ±2 deg at system pressures between 0 to 0.79 MPa. The results ...
