Summary Production equipment, such as pumps and chokes, cause shear in oil/water-mixture flow and form smaller droplets in the system, which might lead to operational and separation problems. Our objective in this paper is to provide new data on drop

Summary Models are developed for foam breakup in a batch separator, as well as inlet–cyclone and gas/liquid–cylindrical–cyclone (GLCC) compact separators, by improving the Saint–Jalmes et al. (2000) “1–g” foam–batch–separator model.
