Study on the Key Factors of Wet Gas Metering Overreading in Standard Venturi Tube Base on DPM

Article Preview

Abstract:

This article discusses how and why the wet gas metering overreading produce for a standard Venturi tube by analyzing the influence of the key parameters of X parameter, the Froude number and pressure. The adopted multiphase model is DPM. The results of simulation are compared with the experimental results of National Engineering Laboratory. The maximum relative error of the predicted overreading from simulation is 5.14% and the average relative error is less than 2.8%.
