Hi Zdas,
You are 100% correct, I didn't pay attention to the fact
that Polariskid was talking about *horizontal* flows in a
pipeline, whilst the Turner Limit is for *vertical* pipes.
My sincerest apologies to you all for the inappropriate
and misleading post. I will be more careful next time...
Do a Google search using "Fortran, tutorials" (don't use the
"", though) and you shall recover lots of free tutorials that
you can download or browse. I'd start with those if I were
you.
Just curious... What is the driving force pushing you to
learn Fortran?
Good luck!

A word of caution here: the word "emulsion" has been
loosely employed in several articles and texts, quite
often defining *mixtures* of oil and water where no
actual emulsion had been formed.
Having that said, I must point out that AFAIK there is
no acceptably successful correlation...
Hi,
Theoretically, you don't need that much NaOH to remove the
CO2 from your gaseous stream. It happens that the actual
NaOH+CO2 reaction is:
NaOH (aq.) + CO2 --> NaHCO3
So, sodium bicarbonate (a.k.a as "baking soda") will form
thus removing your CO2 at a 1:1 mole basis...
Hi,
Besides all the reasons given by ICman, there is another
one that I would add to the list: gas hydrates may form in
the line under certain conditions should water condensates
in it.
There are other transportation issues: liquid may condensate
and settle in the "valleys" of a...
Hi,
A question to this forum.
I have a liquid-gas (oil+gas) mixture at (p1, T1), and
this mixture shall be compressed to (p2, T2). p2 is known
and I want to compute/estimate/calculate T2. All fluids'
properties at inlet (specific heats, densities, whatever)
are also available. Since it...
Hi,
There is the "Turner Limit" or "Turner Velocity", but
that concept is applicable to vertical flows only (for
example, in gas wells producing some water). I don't think
you can extend the principle to horizontal pipes, though. I
would suggest you to use a...
Hi,
To what 2-phase flow packages do you have access?
Pipephase, Pipesim and OLGA can do the job. However, should
you plan to build your own routine, I would suggest you to
use Beggs & Brill correlation for horizontal and near
horizontal 2-phase flows). A bit more complicated approach...
I am afraid that you will have to write your own piece of
VB code to save pics in JPG format. Maybe someone has done
this already and made the source code public. Have you
searched the internet? There lots of public VB code out
there.
Good luck,
