Pipe Diameter Calculation in 2-Phase Flow
Calculate the pipe ID required, with the following parameters:
Schedule 40 piping
Approx. pressure drop =0.5 psi/100 ft. or 3.5 kPa /30 m
Oil flow: 2,000 m3/d (actual), SG =0.9, oil viscosity =50 cP
Water flow: 6,000 m3/d (actual), SG=1.0, water viscosity =0.7 cP
Gas flow: 40,000 Sm3/d (wet basis), MW=25, gas viscosity=0.012 cP,
compressibility Z =1.0
Pressure =500 kPag, T =50 C
Use the homogeneous flow model.
Suggest to start with the assumption of 12 NPS pipe
