In the past decades, studies on a void fraction of gas–liquid two-phase flow have mainly focused on straight pipes, while voidage in pipeline-riser flows have been largely neglected. In this work, the void fraction of gas–liquid two-phase flow in pipeline-riser was investigated. The test loop consists of a 12 m horizontal pipe, followed by a 2 m downward inclined pipe, and ended at a riser. Both vertical riser and catenary riser were used in the experiment. Slip in severe slugging and annular flow was more pronounced than in bubbly flow. The transition from the mixed to the separated flow occurs at gas–liquid volumetric flow rate ratio equals to 0.8. However, the separated flow forms when the gas–liquid volumetric flow rate ratio is greater than 0.9 for catenary riser. A total of 28 correlations for predicting the void fractions were evaluated with the experimental data. The Mishima and Hibiki correlation was found to be the most accurate among the studied correlations, predicting 68.5% and 69.3% of the measured data within ±30% for vertical and catenary riser, respectively. A new correlation considering the effect of the elbow is still needed for more accurate prediction of void fraction in pipeline-riser. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
