Decision matrix for liquid loading in gas wells for cost/benefit analyses of lifting options
… exist to reduce the loss of gas production when liquid loading begins to occur. However, the choice of remedial technique, its feasibility, and its cost, vary considerably depending on a field's location, size export route, and the individual operator's experience. The selection of the best …

Integrated multiphase flow modeling in wellbore for downhole pressure predictions
… by incorporating the state-of-the-art onset of liquid loading model. Unlike the existing models, the new model classifies the flow based on the onset of liquid loading. If liquid loading occurs, then the model uses a sophisticated drift-flux model which proved to be both simple and relatively …

Modeling of Multiphase Flow in the Near-Wellbore Region of the Reservoir under Transient Conditions
… from underground reservoirs to the surface, liquids can come from condensate dropout, water break-through from the reservoir, or vapor condensation in the wellbore. In all three cases, the higher density liquid needs to be transported to the surface by the gas. If the gas phase does not …

Controlling Factors on Condensate Production from the Eagle Ford Shale
… that include the horizontal wells length, liquid drop out and liquid loading around the wellbore. It also addresses the possibility of lean gas injection. It is found that production of heavy ends (C5, C6 and C7) remains low with time but at an approximate constant rate. The dual …

Condensing heat transfer within horizontal tubes
… at a Reynolds number of 105. The effect of the liquid loading and the temperature difference across the condensing film on the heat transfer coefficient was negligible over the range of the investigation.

Development Of Ionic Liquid Swelled Poly-Electrolyte Membranes For Use In Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells
… of polymer type, polymer molecular weight, ionic liquid loading and ionic liquid alkyl chain length. High power conversion efficiencies achieved 1.60% for low molecular weight poly(DADMAI) swelled with 1-hexyl-3-methyl imidazolium iodide and after 45 days 41.0% of this initial power conversion …

Investigation of Swirl Flows Applied to the Oil and Gas Industry
… areas were identified: wet gas metering, liquid loading in gas wells and erosion at pipe bends due to sand transport. For all three areas, Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations were performed. Where available, experimental data were used to validate the CFD results. As a part of …

Treatment of blue crab processing wastewater using Upflow Anaerobic Sludge Blanket (UASB) and air stripping technologies
… increased from 9 to 21 m³/min. The average liquid loading rate and liquid temperature were 25 L/m²/min and 14° C, respectively.

The Development of a Fluid Consistency Transducer
… plants. The transducer uses the effects of fluid loading on a mechanical resonator. This is in the form of a disk (sensor) mounted at the end of a rod about 2.5 m long. The disk is driven by longitudinal waves in the rod generated by making a section of it of magnetostrictive material. Three …

An experimental study on the effect of viscosity on micro-bubble size distribution and rise velocity in a bubble column
Dissolved air flotation (DAF) is a proven solid-liquid separation technology that is being used in water and wastewater treatment as an alternative process to conventional sedimentation operation. Due to its smaller footprint and ability to cater for higher liquid loading rates, it is ideal in many …

Thermodynamic and Kinetic Study of Carbon Dioxide and Mercury Removal from Flue Gas in Coal Combustion Power Plants
… solutions and adsorption using supported ionic liquid sorbents were investigated.</p><p>A vapor-liquid equilibrium (VLE) data reduction method that simplifies experimental measurements while maintaining accuracy was applied for the first time to the thermodynamic study of CO<sub>2</sub> …

Flow patterns, performance and scale-up of distillation trays
This work is concerned with the nature of liquid flow across industrial sieve trays operating in the spray, mixed, and the emulsified flow regimes. In order to overcome the practical difficulties of removing many samples from a commercial tray, the mass transfer process was investigated in an air …

Multiphase flow modeling and deposition of hydrates in oil and gas pipelines
… A first pass model for the slip between gas and liquid phases, using dimensionless numbers, was developed for a general fluid system. The effect of inclination/gravity was studied and incorporated in the gas-liquid slip. Using this model to simulate hydrate formation in subsea pipelines, it was …
