Multiphase flow modelling of lancing of furnace tap-holes: validation of multiphase flow simulated in OpenFOAM®

Experimental validation of multiphase flow models and testing of multiphase flow meters: a critical review of flow loops worldwide

Around the world, research into multiphase flow is performed by scientists with hugely diverse backgrounds: physicists, mathematicians and engineers from mechanical, nuclear, chemical, civil, petroleum, environmental and aerospace disciplines. Multiphase flow models are required to investigate the co-current or counter-current flow of different fluid phases under a wide range of pressure and te...

Numerical Modelling of Multiphase Flow in Porous Media

Multi-component Multiphase Flow

An axiomatic foundation for models of multi-component multiphase porous flow appearing ubiquitously in the engineering literature is developed. This unifies and extends various disparate and empirical formulations appearing in the literature. Constitutive restrictions are derived from an appropriate statement of the second law of thermodynamics, and the corresponding dissipation inequalities es...

Multiphase Flow Imaging by Capacitance Tomography Using Simulated Annealing Inversion

Electrical capacitance tomography (ECT) is a technique for obtaining crosssectional images of the electrical permittivity distribution inside an electrically non-conducting body. It can be used to map the composition of two-phase mixtures like gas-oil systems and provides a useful tool for multiphase flow visualization and measurement and potential applications in petroleum industry. The ECT se...

Numerical Investigation of Multiphase Flow in Pipelines

We present and analyze reliable numerical techniques for simulating complex flow and transport phenomena related to natural gas transportation in pipelines. Such kind of problems are of high interest in the field of petroleum and environmental engineering. Modeling and understanding natural gas flow and transformation processes during transportation is important for the sake of physical realism...
