A relatively simple method of estimating sand velocity and hold-up in multiphase flowlines allows a design engineer to determine whether a producing well needs a sand-exclusion system at a subsea ...

Oil field operators can use several practical equations for calculating flow rates of natural gas through venturi gas-lift valves. For critical flow, this analysis derived such equations from a ...

If there are no shear stresses present, there is no fluid deformation, and the behavior of a fluid is described by the bulk modulus relating the pressure and the compression strain. In the presence of ...
