Research of Wet Gas Experimental Facility with Adjustable and Intermediate Pressure

Abstract

In order to better simulate the flowing condition of wet gas, Tianjin University has designed and built up a wet gas flow experimental facility with adjustable and intermediate pressure in the flow laboratory. The designed pressure of the facility which used standard meter method and dual closed-loop design is 4MPa. The experiment medium is air and water, and the highest operation pressure is 1.6MPa. The gas flow rate range is 3~1000m3/h, and the liquid flow rate range is 0.05~8 m3/h. This article includes the structure introduction of the facility and the calculation of pressure loss of the system, etc. By the uncertainty assessment for the discussed facility, the conclusion is stated that the facility’s gas measurement uncertainty is 1% and the facility’s liquid measurement uncertainty is 0.35%.
