Understanding condensation in microchannels is critical for designing optimized and
compact microchannel condensers, which have the potential to increase system level …

Offshore oil and gas exploitation is usually accompanied of water (brine) and sand. High
water cuts at high pressure scenarios (deep waters) and low temperature (cold waters) favor …

Pipe blockage due to gas hydrate formation is a main concern in the oil and gas industry
due to the revenue losses caused by either production impairments or interruptions, and to …

This study proposes a new set of equations for the energy balance for predicting the
temperature distribution of gas-liquid slug flows using a slug tracking approach. The model …

The heat transfer between the deep sea waters and the oil and gas mixtures flowing through
production lines is a common situation in the petroleum industry. The optimum prediction of …

The research for gas–liquid two-phase flow is very important for flow assurance and flow
stability of chemical transportation. In terms of transportation pipelines, the curved section is …

Very few models exist in the literature for predicting phase-change heat transfer in the
intermittent flow regime during condensation in microchannels. Intermittent flow is …

In this study, detailed three-dimensional (3D) numerical simulations of intermittent
multiphase flows were carried out to investigate the slug initiation process and various …

A worldwide problem reported by oil companies is the plugging of flow lines because of gas
hydrates, a crystal that forms and agglomerates causing partial of complete obstructions …

Mechanistic models for predicting condensation heat transfer in the annular and intermittent
flow regimes are presented and compared with data for different working fluids (R134a and …
