Abstract
Numerical Simulation of Two-Phase Slug Flow Liquid-Carryover in a Converging T-junction
Highlights
Excessive liquid carryover in gas feed stream extracted from the branch of T-junction causes severe issues for downstream equipment (Fig. 1)
Most of them agreed that a reduction in diameter ratio could decrease peak liquid carryover, improve phase separation [4]-[9]
Saieed [9] proved that reducing the diameter ratio to a certain limit can decrease the liquid carryover threshold as well, worsen phase separation
Summary
Excessive liquid carryover in gas feed stream extracted from the branch of T-junction causes severe issues for downstream equipment (Fig. 1). This causes the gas separation system to trip frequently for maintenance activities, which often takes at least two days to resume to normal operation. Most of them agreed that a reduction in diameter ratio could decrease peak liquid carryover, improve phase separation [4]-[9]. Saieed [9] proved that reducing the diameter ratio to a certain limit can decrease the liquid carryover threshold as well, worsen phase separation.
