Investigation on Sand Particle Impingement on Steel Pipe in Two Phase Flow Using Acoustic Emission Technology

Abstract:

This paper presents an experimental investigation that employed the acoustic emission (AE) technology to monitor sand transportation in two-phase flow. This investigation was undertaken on two phase (air-sand) flow in a horizontal pipe for varying Superficial Gas Velocities (VSG). The objective of this research programme is to develop a simple, non-invasive technique for monitoring of sand particle concentration levels in multi-phase flow conditions. The experimental findings show that AE absolute energy can be correlated with the size of sand, number of sand particles and Superficial Gas Velocity (VSG).
