Scaling of multiphase pipeline flow behavior at high gas density

Book ·
OSTI ID:6497070
This report contains data that demonstrates the scaling of flow regime, pressure drop, and holdup multiphase flow with pipe diameter. In addition, entrance length effects, the onset of liquid entrainment, and interfacial shear modeling at high gas density are studied for purposes of validating multiphase flow design methods. Stratified, slug and annular flow regimes have been observed. Air, freon, and water have been used to represent pipeline fluids.
