[0002] Petrochemical production facilities often experience harsh environments with high sulfur, chlorine, and acid levels, leading to multiphase flow erosion corrosion damage and failure of equipment, pipelines, and safety accessories. Examples include oil refining atmospheric and vacuum decompression units, catalytic cracking units, Claus / Consov desulfurization units in the chemical industry, and coal-to-liquids / gasification units and direct liquefaction / coal-to-liquids units in the coal-to-chemical industry. Predicting the patterns and rates of multiphase flow erosion corrosion damage to guide safe operation and maintenance in petrochemical production facilities is an urgent industry need.
[0003] Currently, there are many industrial pipeline multiphase erosion simulation test devices both at home and abroad, but most of them are designed for oil and gas production and transportation environments. Typical examples abroad include the multiphase flow pipeline device at Ohio University in the United States, which is suitable for long-distance pipeline oil and gas systems (gas-liquid / oil-gas / gas-liquid / liquid-solid two-phase), with a flow rate of 0.1-20 m / s, a temperature of 25-120°C, and a pressure of 1000 psi; the multiphase flow corrosion and erosion pipeline device at the University of Tulsa in the United States is suitable for natural gas / oil and gas production pipeline systems (water-sand / oil-sand / liquid-solid two-phase), with a flow rate of 0.1-30 m / s, a temperature of 0-80°C, and a pressure of 1000 psi. Typical domestic examples include the flow corrosion / erosion simulation experimental device at the University of Science and Technology Beijing, which is suitable for oil and gas transmission pipeline systems (oil-water / gas-liquid-solid three-phase), with a flow rate of 0.1-30 m / s, a temperature of 0-100°C, and a pressure of 2 MPa. The above mentioned flow corrosion erosion simulation test devices are not suitable for the harsh environment of high sulfur, high chlorine and high acid. There are also pipeline erosion test devices specially designed for the flow characteristics of petrochemical plants.

[0079] As the fluid passes through the special feeding module 6, the increased flow rate causes the pressure in the pipeline to decrease, forming a localized low-pressure area, which attracts solid particles into the pipeline. The signal from the solid particle flowmeter 64 is transmitted in real time to the electrical control cabinet 15, which adjusts the opening of the electric ball valve 61 to regulate the particle release rate. The particle release rate is between 0 and 50 kg / h, ensuring flexible and adjustable feeding, forming a uniform multiphase flow, improving the mixing efficiency of particles and fluid, ensuring a uniform flushing effect, and guaranteeing automatic material release during system operation.
