RE: slug catcher simulation

Are there liquids in the stream, if so what is the liquid flowrate and the gas flowrate. What flow pattern do you have?  Size the slug catcher to capture the largest amount of liquids coming in over the critical time period.

Very good idea Big.
I think that I will do that

RE: slug catcher simulation

One of the better ideas I had today.

Seriously, if you run into something specific, come back.  Its just difficult to approach this in a general all-inclusive manner, other than to give you ione's paper.
