Stratified two‐phase flows of oil and water are important to the energy industry, and models capable of predicting this type of flow are primordial. Many studies focus on fluids with low viscosity, but a high viscosity oil in the mixture significantly changes its behavior. We gathered experimental data of pressure drop, volumetric fractions, and flow‐pattern data of a stratified liquid–liquid flow...
Particle image Velocimetry (PIV) is a well-established technique in the field of fluid flow measurement and provides instantaneous velocity fields over global domains. It has been applied to external and internal flows, in single and two-phase flows. Regarding internal flow, works about the application of PIV in annular ducts are scanty. An experimental work is presented, where flow of water is studied...
This work presents a study of a new technique for non-intrusive measurement of liquid-liquid flow. The evaluated film thickness sensor has 64 × 16 measuring points and a measuring area of 128 × 32 mm. This sensor measures the electrical conductance and, through a calibration procedure, converts those signals in water film thickness. The experimental work was carried out in the Swiss Federal Institute...
In this work holdup is estimated through image processing and compared with the value calculated indirectly by the correlation presented by Rodriguez et al. in [1]. The tests were performed in the multiphase-flow test facilities of the Research Centre (CENPES) of PETROBRAS, Brazil. Flow images were obtained with a high-speed video camera at 1000 fps in a 2 7/8-inch and 300 meter deep pilot-scale well,...
