Multiphase Flow (CH 472)
Introduction to the flow of multiphase mixtures: gas or vapor liquid, liquid-liquid, liquidsolid, gas-solid, solid-liquid-gas and gases carrying solids (pneumatic transport)
stratification and dispersion, Flow regimes and flow patterns. Gas (Vapor) and Liquid
Flows: Horizontal flow, Vertical flow, pressure, momentum and energy relations, methods
of evaluating pressure drop, Lockhard - Martinell, Chisholm correlations, critical flow,
non-Newtonian flow. Solid-Gas Flow: Effect of pipeline diameter, inclination, bends,
valves and length. Liquid and its physico-chemical properties, rheology, corrosive nature,
viscosity, Solid particle size, distribution phase, and density i.e. their factors effecting
behavior in a fluid, Concentration of particles and the flow rates of both solids and liquid.
Solid-Gas Flow: Horizontal flow, Suspension mechanism, determination of voids, energy
requirements for conveying, pressure drop and solid velocities in dilute phase flow, dense
phase conveying, vertical transport. Bubble and drop formation: Phase holdups,
Interfacial areas, mixing and pressure drops, multiphase (gas liquid solid) operations.
