Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the technical field of multiphase flow parameter measurement methods, specifically relating to a multiphase measurement combined experimental system for oil, gas, water, and sand, and also to the working method of the above-mentioned experimental system. Background Technology
[0002] Multiphase flow phenomena are widespread in production and daily life, including fields such as petroleum, chemical engineering, bioengineering, and aerospace. The flow process of multiphase flow is complex, exhibiting different flow patterns and regimes under different combinations of components and flow parameters. These differences in flow pattern / regime, medium composition, and flow parameter combinations result in significant variations in flow resistance, pressure fluctuations, and fluid-structure interaction. Furthermore, the uncertainty of multiphase measurements increases in different types of pipes and separators. Therefore, accurate measurement of the coupling characteristics between multiphase flow and walls is of great significance for multiphase flow research and theoretical development.
[0003] Separators are crucial equipment for gas-liquid-solid multiphase separation, and understanding their separation mechanism and performance is essential for their design and optimization. However, the presence of solid particles causes significant wall wear on the separator, posing a considerable risk to its safe operation. Therefore, a detailed investigation of these two aspects of separators is necessary. Furthermore, oilfield pipelines accumulate substantial amounts of sand and silt over long periods of use. Exploring methods for physical flushing to prevent and remove silt is of great importance for oilfield pipeline maintenance.
[0004] The existing experimental systems have limited application scope, single testing function, and imperfect conditions. They are often only applicable to one type of experiment and cannot be used for multiphase flow research in various situations. They cannot analyze dredging experiments of pipes with different morphologies and cannot simultaneously meet the requirements of the above experiments. In addition, the accuracy of the measurement precision of the existing experimental systems is also difficult to guarantee. Summary of the Invention

(3) Experiment on the characteristics of pipeline dredging Step 1: Fix the pipe under study to the experimental section (18) using a flange, and install a pressure differential sensor (37) at the experimental section (18) as needed during the experiment. Step 2: Open all back pressure regulating valves (19) and valves in the phase measurement module, open the required medium supply module, and turn on the return oil pump (29) and return water pump (28) devices to test the test bench and ensure that there are no leaks or safety issues. Step 3: Install a high-speed camera (38) and an ultrasonic velocimeter (40) at the experimental section (18) as required during the experiment, and connect the two devices to the data acquisition system and perform connection debugging to ensure the accuracy of signal acquisition; Step 4: Set up different shapes of sludge in different positions in the pipeline in advance, and officially start the test bench. When the required oil-gas two-phase fluid is a high temperature fluid, turn on the heating and heat preservation device in advance, and then turn on the flow regulating valve to make its output flow reach the set value. Adjust the back pressure regulating valve (19) so that the outlet back pressure is the set value. Step 5: Use a pressure differential sensor (37) with a data acquisition system to record the pressure and differential pressure signals in the separator; use a high-speed camera (38) with a data acquisition system to visualize and record the dredging process in the experimental pipeline; use an ultrasonic velocimeter (40) with a data acquisition system to monitor the change in sludge thickness in real time during the dredging process.
