... ABSTRACT Liquid entrainment fraction is an essential parameter in the calculation of the pressure drop and liquid holdup in multiphase flow lines, as well as in separator sizing. Liquid entrainment has been studied for several decades and several models and correlations have been published...

... ABSTRACT The slug capturing technique, which is incorporated in the industrial PROMPT code is used to explore the influence of entrainment of gas bubbles at slug fronts, on slug characteristics such as slug length and frequency. The computations are compared with available field data...

... Abstract A one-dimensional model able to predict the film distribution around the pipe wall under conditions typical of wet gas flow in near-horizontal pipes is presented. The model is based on the assumption that i) liquid droplets can only be entrained by the gas from the thick liquid...

... and high liquid entrainment rates. If sand is present, such flows can potentially accelerate the erosion rates. In this work, the erosion of a carbon steel elbow downstream of an orifice plate in low liquid loading multiphase flows is discussed. Experiments were conducted in a 2-inch diameter multiphase...
