ARTHUR R. SHEAN

Submitted to the Department of Mechanical Engineeringon May 7, 1976 in partial fulfillment of the require-ments for the Degree of Master of Science.

ABSTRACT

The upward flow of oil-water-air and oil-water mixtures in a.75 inch I.D. tube is investigated. Flow pattern, volume fraction, and

pressure loss data is presented for mixture velocities from 4 to 20 ft/sec and oil in liquid volume fraction from 0 to 1.0.

The drift flux method of Zuber and Findley is successfully ex-

tended from two phase flow to three phase flow in order to predict theair void while a new correlation method is presented to estimate the InSitu oil phase volume fraction. In addition, the oil-water flow regime-map of Govier is extended to three phase flow in order to predict thetransition between liquid flow regimes.

Finally several friction pressure loss prediction methods from two

phase flow are modified to three phase flow and compared to actual data.As a result, a scheme of several methods is recommended for use in pre-paring three phase flow pressure loss estimates.

CHAPTER I

INTRODUCTION

Three phase flows are being encountered in the petroleum industry

more and more often. The emphasis on greater production has forced the

exploitation of marginal oil wells, and forced the use of secondary re-

covery schemes. Two methods currently in use to achieve these goals

are, oil field flooding and gas lift wells. Oil field flooding intro-

duces water into the oil field in an effort to maintain natural liquid

levels. The result is an oil-water mixture is taken out of the pipe.

If, in addition, natural gas is present, which is not uncommon, a three

phase flow appears in the well tubing. Gas lift wells on the other

hand inject gas into the well to help lift the natural oil-water mix-

ture to the surface. Again a three phase flow of oil, water and gas is

encountered. Despite the frequency of appearance of the three phase

flow, designers lack a complete knowledge of the flow, hence cannot

properly design pipe sizes, production levels, pumping efforts, or opti-

mal flow conditions. The major inadequacies are the inability to pre-

dict phase fractions, the density pressure losses, effective viscosi-

ties and friction pressure loss. Therefore, there is a need for an in-

vestigation of three phase flow.

The lack of knowledge on three phase flows stems mainly from the

extremely limited number of published works on the subject. M. Rasin

Tek1 in 1961, Galyomov and Karpushin 2 in 1971 and Bacharov, Andriasov

Page 13: PRESSURE DROP AND PHASE FRACTION ARTHUR R. SHEAN S.B ...

13

and Sakharov 3 in 1972 have published papers on the subject three phase

flows. Foreman and Woods performed some work at M.I.T. and furnished

an unpublished paper in 1975.

Conversely two phase flow, from which this work draws heavily has

been intensely investigated. The works of Govier, Radford and Dunn ,

6 7 8Govier, Sullivan and Wood , Zuber-Findley , Griffith and Wallis ,

9 10Orkiszewski and Singh and Griffith in particular were used in this

work. In addition, the correlations of Martinelli11 and McAdams

were employed during comparison calculations.

M. Rasin Tek in his work considered the two fluids as a single

liquid with multiphase mixture properties. With this assumption he

provided a correlation of oil well data which supplied satisfactory

pressure loss predictions. His assumption, however, overlooked the

various flow configurations encountered by the various phases. Hence,

no insight into the true nature of the flows was gained from his work.

The Russian researchers '3 examined the effects on the effective vis-

cosity in horizontal pipes caused by the variation of liquid fraction,

gas content, and turbulence of the flow. Their work did not provide a

correlation, but did find that the three phase flows did vary signifi-

cantly from two phase flows. Even more important they recorded the

variation in effective viscosity of the fluid as a function of liquid

fraction (this method is similar to the work of Govier on oil-water

flows). Their works are significant in that they recognized all three

Page 14: PRESSURE DROP AND PHASE FRACTION ARTHUR R. SHEAN S.B ...

14

phases effect the nature of the flow. Foreman and Woods continued

the separated phase investigation by applying the work of Zuber and

Findley to the gas phase of the flow. Their limited data indicated

that the gas phase could be handled separately from the liquids. They,

however, did not approach the question of pressure drop.

The approach of this current work is to attack the three phase

flow first as a gas liquid two phase flow as suggested by Tek, then to

examine the two fluids using a variation of the liquid fraction as sug-

gested by the Russian investigators and Govier. In the two phase approxi-

mation the Zuber-Findley Drift Flux model will be applied as did Foreman

and Woods.

To execute this approach, experimentation was conducted in a verti-

cal .75" ID plexiglass tube using a mineral oil, water and air mixture

system. The mineral oil was chosen because its density was less than

that of water and its viscosity was much greater than water (see Appen-

dix E) . These differences allowed for easier differentiation of the

individual fluid effects on the flow. The separation was further en-

hanced by the fact the oil, because of its large viscosity, remained in

laminar flow throughout the experiment. The experimentation was con-

ducted in three parts: First three phase void fraction data was ob-

tained to verify the Foreman-Woods conclusion that the gas could be

treated by the drift Flux method; then two phase oil water data was ob-

tained and combined with Goviers data (Appendix B) to determine the

Page 15: PRESSURE DROP AND PHASE FRACTION ARTHUR R. SHEAN S.B ...

15

variation effects of various parameters on the flow characteristics,

and finally three phase void and pressure drop data was obtained over a

variety of mixture velocities to provide a correlation for the In Situ

Oil Volume Phase Fraction and to check pressure drop predictions.

CHAPTER II

TEST APPARATUS

The three phase flow of mineral oil (Nujol), water and air was de-

veloped in a 282" by .75" ID vertical tube (Fig. 1). The oil and water

were drawn by pumps from a separator tank (Inset C to Fig. 1) through

flowrator tubes into the vertical tubes. The rates were adjusted by

gate valves. The air flow was provided by a shop air system and was

likewise metered by a flowrator and pressure gauge. The connection to

the tube (Inset A to Fig. 1) started the air in the center of the verti-

cal tube. All observations and measurements were taken approximately

200 L/D up the tube to allow for full developement of the flow.

The test section consisted of a piece of plexiglass tubing which

was separated from the remaining vertical tube by a pair of quick act-

ing valves. These valves were linked together and operated simultane-

ously. The section between the valves was 80.25" long. The plexiglass

tubing had two purposes. First, the clear tubing allowed for visual

observation. In some cases, especially in three phase flows, 35mm

camera photographs were necessary to freeze the action for close obser-

vation. In order to differentiate between the fluids, red dye was

added to the water. The Nujol although clear at rest, became milky

white when worked. Both effects accentuated observation. The second

purpose of the plexiglass was to measure the void and fluid fractions.

When the quick acting valves were closed, the mixture settled out into

its component parts. The volume averaged void and fluid fractions could

then be measured. Also located between the quick closing valves were

two pressure tapes 74.25 inches apart. These were used in measuring

the pressure drop.

After departing the test section, the mixture traveled an addi-

tional 65 L/D up to an air separator and then back down to the fluid

separator. The additional length beyond the test section was to avoid

any end effects. A thermometer was inserted into the side of the fluid

separator so that the temperature of the recycled fluids could be re-

corded.

In measuring the pressure drop across the test section, two sets

of equipment were used. For the two phase Nujol and water data, the

water filled pressure tubes were fed from the pressure taps to a diff-

erential pressure gauge which read in inches of water. A cross-over

system (Inset B to Fig. 1) was needed because the water head was over-

taken by friction losses under certain flow conditions causing negative

meter readings. The pressure gauge system was sufficiently accurate

because the pressure deviations across an oil bubble were relatively

small. The three phase flow however had large pressure deviations over

the air bubbles. Attempts to dampen out this effect fluidically were

disappointing. Therefore, Statham pressure transducers and an R.C.

circuit were utilized to dampen out the transient fluctuations in pres-

sure. This system provided adequate average pressure data.

CHAPTER III

EXPERIMENTAL PROCEDURES

A. Three Phase Void Fraction Data:

During this test the void fraction was measured for a variety of

oil in liquid volume fractions and varying mixture velocities. In a

particular series of runs, the oil-in fluid volume fraction was fixed and

readings of the void were taken at 10% increments of the maximum air

flow. The air variation provided the mixture velocity variation. In a

particular run the specific procedure was as follows: The oil and water

flow rates were calculated to produce the appropriate fluid volume

fraction and be within the capacity of the apparatus. These flows were

then established within the tube. The air flow was then adjusted to the

appropriate increment of maximum flow. When the flow rates had stabili-

zed, the air metering pressure, flow rates and separator tank temperature

were read and recorded. Then the flow was visually observed and photo-

graphs, if appropriate, were taken. After observation the quick acting

valves were closed and the mixture was allowed to separate. The void

and fluid fractions were recorded using a ruler which was fastened to

the tube supports. Each run was repeated at least three times and the

data recorded. This repetition was essential because the inconsistency

of the churn turbulent flow and the length of the slugs-within the test

section gave different results on any single run. This was found true

in other tests which included air flow.

Page 21: PRESSURE DROP AND PHASE FRACTION ARTHUR R. SHEAN S.B ...

21

Normally the air flow was initiated at low volume rates and in-

creased. With frequency of run, however, the separator tank temperature

would rise due to friction loss and pump work. This temperature change

affected the viscosity of both fluids. In order to avoid any data bias

at the higher air flows, the progression was occasionally reversed. In

later tests, each series of runs was completed prior to any repetition

so that temperatures for a series would be more uniform.

B. Two Phase Liquid Flows:

During this test the total volume flow rate was held constant while

the oil volume fraction was varied from zero to one. As before, the

flows were calculated to provide the appropriate fraction and within

the apparatus capacity. The flows were then introduced into the tube

and allowed to stabilize. The flows, separator tank temperature, and

pressure drop across the test section were recorded. The flow was then

observed and the void data read and recorded as above. Various mixture

velocities were obtained by varying the total volume flow rates. Again

each run was repeated three times. Except as noted above, each series

was completed prior to any repeats. This repetition was unnecessary in

this test because the fluctuations were less without air flow.

C. Three Phase Pressure Loss and Void Tests:

In this test the fluid volume flow rate was held constant while

the oil in liquid volume fraction was varied from zero to one. Air was

introduced in varying amounts to obtain various mixture velocities.

Page 22: PRESSURE DROP AND PHASE FRACTION ARTHUR R. SHEAN S.B ...

22

Each series of runs was characterized by a different mixture velocity.

The same procedure as the two phase oil water test above was utilized ex-

cept air flow and metering pressure were recorded. Also the pressure at

the top and bottom of the test section were recorded rather than the

difference.

D. Contact Angle Measurements:

A glass fish tank was filled with red dye water and Nujol and allow-

ed to settle. A flat plate of test material was introduced so that its

midpoint was at the fluid interface. Observing the edge of the plate it

was tilted until the fluid interface adjacent to the plate became parallel

to the remainder of the interface (Fig. 3). At this point, the angle

between the plate and interface was the contact angle for the fluids

and material. A photograph was taken to record this angle. This measure-

ment was repeated for several materials.

CHAPTER V

RESULTS AND DISCUSSION

A. Three Phase Void Fraction Test

Zuber and Findley predicted that in a two phase flow the gas veloc-

ity plotted as a straight line with the following equation:

va = C v + Vaj (5.1)

where v aj is the bubble rise velocity. For turbulent slug flow in a

vertical tube the suggested valves of Co varied between 1.0 and 1.5 while

the vaj is of the order of .5 ft./sec.. All of the current tests were

within this slug flow range and did indeed plot as straight lines. Fig-

ures 4a through 4e show the following quantities plotted versus the mix-

ture velocity:

= Qa (5.2)a aA

a

= Q (5.3)w a A

_ QA (5.4)o aA

The Co for all air velocity curves ranged between 1.19 and 1.32 with .j

between .4 and .6 ft./sec.. The variation in Co showed no dependence on

the oil in liquid volume fraction (Fo) or the velocity of the mixture or

fluid components. Such close results indicate that the assumptions of

Page 25: PRESSURE DROP AND PHASE FRACTION ARTHUR R. SHEAN S.B ...

25

Tek and the conclusion of Foreman and Woods, that the air can be separ-

ately handled from the liquid, is reasonable. In addition, the methods

of Zuber-Findley can be extended to three phase flow to perform this

function.

Figure 4a through 4e show another interesting result. All the plots

of Vw and v , except for the Fo = .50 plot, cross. Likewise, the data

of Foreman and Woods when similarly plotted show the same occurance.

Zuber and Findley in their work ascribed a higher velocity to the air

which was flowing in the center of the tube. This was based on assumed

velocity and concentration profiles such as Fig. 5a. Fig. 7 illustrates

this concentration profile. The fluid with higher concentration on the

outside moved at a lower average velocity than that of the air at the

center with a higher velocity profile. Similarly if the oil water con-

centration profile is divided as in Fig. 5b, then the average value of

v would be greater than v . If the two fluid concentration profiles are

reversed, then the bulk of the oil would be on the outside of the tube

where the velocity profile is the lowest. Therefore the average oil

velocity would be lower. Conversly the bulk of the water would be more

toward the center of the tube and the average water velocity would be

higher. The result is a reversal of the oil water velocity difference.

Comparison of observation with data verify this correspondence between

the switching of position and velocity difference reversal. When the

velocity reversal occurs, the fluid color changes from red to white in-

dicating an increase in oil concentration next to the wall. A further

demonstration of this switching can be seen in Figure 6, where the oil

water velocity difference (Sow) is plotted against the mixture velocity.

As the curves cross the zero line, the oil and water switch positions

with relation to the wall. The location of the switching appears to be

independent of the mixture velocity, however the .5 Fo curve indicates

that the switch occurs only above a certain Fo. Later the boundry will

be shown to be the Fo for the transition from oil bubbles in water to

water bubbles in oil.

In addition to the oil water velocity change, a temperature effect

was observed. During the experiment the temperature was not controlled

but recorded. Figures 8 and 9 show the result of temperature deviations

for Fo's of .5 and .8. A lower temperature indicated a higher velocity

difference except at higher velocity were the difference reversed. A

possible explanation is as follows: At lower velocities the flows are

in the slug regime and the oil travels in bubbles within the water. If

the bubbles were smaller, the distribution of oil would be better with a

13subsequent smaller Sow. Rohsenow and Choi give an estimate of bubble

diameter as:

Db = CO 2g a (5.5)

gAp

where C is a constant and 0 is the contact angle and a function of the

surface tension. Although p and a decrease with higher temperature, a

falls off more rapidly. Hence a higher temperature indicates a smaller

bubble diameter with a lower expected velocity difference. At higher

velocities the flow approaches an annular flow in which viscosities play

a greater role. Viscosity again falls off with increasing temperature.

Thus, lower temperature indicates a higher viscosity which retards the

fluid flows reducing the Sow. In both cases illustrated, the tempera-

ture effect did not change the shape of the curves, just the relative

locations. Also, the effect on the air data was minimal.

B. Two Phase Void Fraction and Pressure Drop Test

In the past, researchers have been successful in applying two phase

information to three phase flow problems. For example, Zuber and Find-

ley's approach worked well in part A while the Russian researchers em-

ployed the plotting technique of Govier . Therefore, it seems logical

to assume that two phase oil water information may be instrumental in

separating the oil water portion of a three phase flow. This in fact

appears to be true. The flow characteristics of the two phase flow turn

out to be very similar to those of three phase flow and because of this,

predictions of In Situ Phase Volume Fraction, critical oil in liquid

volume fraction, and effective viscosity can be made from modified two

phase flow information.

Figures 10 and 11 show the essential void fraction information of

an oil-water mixture. The In Situ oil phase volume fraction and velocity

difference show a marked crossover where the two liquids exchange places

on the wall. During this test the switching became much more visible

because the mixture velcoities were much lower than three phase flows.

In both bases the switching appeared dependent upon the oil in liquid

volume fraction. In Figure 10 the curves approach the straight homo-

geneous line (o) with increasing mixture velocity. The two ft/sec

curve appeared to be the limit from which a approached o . Also the

void defect from that of the homogeneousline is in the fluid away from

the wall, i.e. in oil when water is on the wall. This fact further re-

inforces our assumed velocity and concentration profile of Figure 5.

The examination of the pressure drop curves (figures 12 and 13)

shows further consequences of the oil-water position switching. In both

cases a very sharp jump in pressure occurs at an Fo corresponding to that

where the fluids exchange places at the wall. Before and after the

switching, the friction pressure curves are relatively constant at values

close to that of the individual fluids flowing alone in the tube. The

coupling of the levels and the identity of the fluid next to the wall

suggests that the effective viscosity of the fluid mixture is that of

the fluid flowing next to the wall. This is not unreasonable since most

friction losses in a viscous fluid flow occur near the wall where the

fluid is slowed down to match the no slip condition. Again the picture

in Fig. 5b seems more plausible. Another observation from Figure 12

and 13 is that the total pressure loss curve has the same shape as the

friction pressure curve alone. The only difference being the level.

This indicates that the friction pressure loss causes the major devia-

tion in the total pressure loss.

In order to clarify the dependence of the friction pressure loss on

various flow parameters, the above data was plotted with that of Govier

in Appendix B. The parameters were diameter, mixture velocity and vis-

cosity. The results were as follows:

1. The location of the switching was independent of the diameter

while the effect on the level decreased with higher mixture velocities.

2. The velocity had a marked effect on the level, but relatively

little effect on the switching location.

3. The viscosity of the oil affected the level only after the shift

but did not affect the switch location.

From the above investigation it has become apparent that the single

most important item in dividing the oil from the water is determining

the location of the shift from water to oil on the wall also that this

location appears to be based on a critical oil in liquid volume frac-

tion. Govier in his work with Sullivan and Wood addressed the problem

by creating a regime map (Figure 14) based upon Regime observations and

the fluctuations of the total pressure curves (Figure 15). Govier

stated that this map was relatively insensitive to a change in the oil

viscosity except that the froth lines (points a, b and c, Figure 15)

merge in the data for high viscosities (150 cp). In this investigation

a similar absence of separate points is observed. The map became valu-

able because it successfully located the critical oil in liquid volume

fraction for the current test to within the accuracy of this data (±.05,

see Table 1). The implications of this are that for two phase flow one

can predict when the a will be above or below and the viscosity of0 0

47

which fluid can be used as the effective fluid viscosity. The most im-

portant point, however, is that these results will be extended to three

phase flow in the next section.

C. Three Phase Flow Void Fraction and Pressure Drop Test

The results of this final test draw together all the information

of the previous two tests and provide acceptable prediction methods for

gas void, liquid phase Volume Fraction, critical oil in liquid volume

fraction (Fo), and effective viscosity in a three phase flow. These

results will be presented in three parts. 1. Void fraction results

and prediction method. 2. Pressure drop results and 3. Pressure drop

prediction methods and comparison.

1. Void Fraction: In part A, the results indicated that the plot-

ting method of Zuber and Findley successfully correlated the air void

data. Likewise in this test the same method was successful. Figure 16

shows the individual air void curves for each of the oil in liquid vol-

ume fractions (Fo) tested. The distribution of these lines except for

.95 and 1.0 show no systematic arrangement. This fact indicates that

the distribution is independent of Fo. Because of this, a single aver-

aged curve may likewise be independent of Fo. In fact, the two consoli-

dated curves are shown in Fig. 17. From these curves the following

equations may be derived:

o<Fo<.9 v = 1.28 + .4 ft/sec (5.6)- - a m

.9 < F < 1.0 v = 1.794 + .384 ft/sec (5.7)-o - a m

The fact that two equations are achieved is reassuring because for

Fo >.9 the oil dominates the flow and as was mentioned earlier, the oil

was in laminar flow throughout these experiments. For laminar flow sev-

eral authors 8,12 suggest that the Zuber-Findley constant may range up

to 1.7 for two phase laminar flows. Hence when the oil is on the wall of

the tube a value of 1.794 as in Eq. 5.7 is reasonable. Likewise, 1.28

for turbulent slug flow is akin to the values suggested by Govier and

Aziz and Griffith for similar two phase flows. The above equations may

be rearranged to obtain the following prediction method for the air void

fraction.

0 < Fo < .9 a = Va (5.8)

1.28 i + .4m

.9 < F < 1.0 = Va (5.9)o - a1.794 + 3.85m

In all three phase cases examined in this experiment, the bubble rise

velocity was small with respect to the mixture velocity and may be neg-

lected without loss of accuracy. When the bubble rise velocity is neg-

lected, the following equations for air void are obtained:

0 < F < .9 a a (5.10)1.28 QT

,9 < Fo < 1.0 aa = Qa (5.11)

1.794 QT

Page 51: PRESSURE DROP AND PHASE FRACTION ARTHUR R. SHEAN S.B ...

51

As a result of this simplification the only information necessary for

field calculation of the air void is the oil, water and air volume flow

rates. It should be noted that equations 5.7, 5.9 and 5.11 are valid

only when the Reynolds number based on the mixture velocity and the oil

viscosity indicate the flow is laminar. These equations are compared

against the data obtained in Part A and that of Foreman and Woods (Fig.

18 and 19). In both cases these equations give excellent results. The

comparison with Foreman and Woods is especially interesting because their

data is based on kerosene which has a significantly lower viscosity than

Nujol. In an effort to separate the two fluid Volume Fractions, the

method of plotting the Insitu oil phase volume fraction versus the oil

in liquid volume fraction of Part B may be employed. However, this

method must be modified to isolate the fluids from the gas. The Insitu

oil phase volume fraction must be divided by the liquid phase Volume

Fraction and the oil in liquid volume fraction (Fo) is defined as B°/Bf.

In-this way Figure 20 may be obtained. This curve has a striking resemb-

lance to Figure 10 for oil and water alone. In fact, both ordinates

reduce to those of Figure 10 when the air flow is zero. The most im-

portant point of both curve is that they both cross the homogeneous

line as the fluids exchange places near the wall. In Figure 10 the

curves show dependence on the mixture velocity while Figure 20 does not.

The difference is that the mixture velocity in the two phase is obtained

by varying the fluid mass flow rate while in the three phase flows the

fluid mass flow rate was constant. The air flow was varied instead.

Therefore, the results appear to be dependent on the fluid mass flow

rate and oil in liquid volume fraction (Fo) only. In this test then,

because the mass flow rate is constant, a single equation for the curve

may be obtained. This equation is:

1.536a =1.037 af(Fo) (5.12)o f

where f = l-a (5.13)a

As a consequence of this equation, and that for the air void, we can now

estimate the Insitu water phase Volume fraction as follows:

a= l-(a +ac) (5.14)w a o

or for 0 < F < .9-o -

1.536a = .9 64-a f(Fo) (5.15)

Again the data of Part A and Foreman and Woods are compared with the

new correlation (Figures 21 and 22). The Part A data show good results

while that of Foreman and Woods show a systematic deviation. When the

latter data is plotted in Figure 20, it plots closer to the homogeneous

line. From Figure 10 this indicates that the Foreman-Woods data has a

higher fluid mass flow rate and, in fact, it is 50% higher. Also, the

kerosene has a much lower viscosity than that of Nujol. This differ-

ence allows for more turbulent flow with greater mixing of the two fluids.

The mixing flattens the concentration curves of Figure 5b, and reduces

the fluid velocity difference. Finally, the reduced velocity difference

implies a slower oil velocity and a larger in situ oil phase volume

fraction. As a result, the predicted values of Eq. 5.12 are less, and

the values should fall below the diagonal in Fig. 22 as they do. Some

of the fluid mass flow rates of Part A also differ from those of Part

C. The step near a actual of .3 is a junction between several runs0

with different fluid mass flow rates. Again, those below the diagonal

generally had higher flow rates than did Part C. It should be noted

that these correlations for void fractions are only estimates and ad-

justments may be necessary to insure the total of all three Volume Frac-

tions is one. This is especially true at the higher values of the oil

in liquid volume fraction (Fo).

To complete the void fraction results the oil water velocity differ-

ence is shown plotted versus Fo and mixture velocity in Figures 2 and

24. From these curves we may observe the switch point is again strongly

dependent upon Fo while the mixture velocity weakly influences the lo-

cation of the crossing. Later it will be shown that the superficial

water velocity, is the actual cause of this weak dependence. Finally,

Figure 24 is very similar to Figure 6 for two phase flow. Therefore,

the characteristic shape of the velocity difference curves appear re-

latively independent of the gas volume flow rate.

2. Pressure Drop

Figures 25 and 26 summarize the pressure drop data obtained from

this test. In Figure 25 the friction pressure loss curves show a marked

dependence on the mixture velocity for their level while the shape of

the curves appears to be independent. Also, the shape appears to be very

similar to Govier's oil water curves in Appendix B. Because of this

similarity, and the fact the variance in mixture velocity is a function

of air flow only, the shape can be assumed to be a characteristic of the

fluid flow only. As with Figure 13, the friction pressure drop is re-

latively uniform up to the critical Fo for transition to water bubble

flow. As a result, for estimate purposes, the viscosity of the water

may be used as the mixture viscosity up to the critical Fo. The nega-

tive pressure losses shown in Figure 25 may be attributed to the counter-

flow experienced as a slug of air passes through the tube. Collier

comments on this effect in his book. Figure 27 gives an idealized view

of such a flow over a slug. As can be seen, the shear over the bubble

can balance the loss over the fluid slug and givea positive time aver-

aged shear stress and a negative friction pressure loss.

The total pressure drop is unaffected by the mixture velocity. As

the air flow increases, the gravity pressure loss decreases, but the

resulting increase in mixture velocity increases the friction pressure

loss. Figure 26 indicates that these two effects balance one another

under the test flow conditions. The shape of this curve resembles that

of Govier's 20.1 cp oil-water curve, Figure 15, especially the critical

points a,b and c. This indicates that the air flow apparently lowered

the effective viscosity of the oil as experienced by the water. This

similarity of the total pressure curves suggests that we may use Govier's

map to predict the critical oil in liquid volume fraction. With some

modification this appears to be true. These modifications are: The

boundary between the oil slugs and froth must be extended as in Figure

14, and the superficial water velocity is redefined as flowing through

the liquid Phase Volume Fraction as follows:

v = qw (5.16)

W afA

Because all three critical points appear in the three phase total pres-

sure curve, all three will be predicted. Table 2 shows a summary of the

modified Govier map applied to the current data. The results are very

good considering the accuracy of the data.

3. Pressure Loss Prediction Methods, Comparison and Discussion

Based on the foregoing information and data, several known methods

for predicting two phase friction pressure loss may be applied to the

three phase flow. These are the Singh-Griffith1 0 method, McAdams -

Homogeneous method and Lochart-Martinelli correlation. The first

two are based on assumptions of the flow regime while the latter is

basically imperical. In addition, an annular flow method suggested by

Griffith is applied at the higher oil-in-liquid volume fractions. A

derivation is shown in Appendix D. The method used by Singh-Griffith

to estimate the gravity pressure loss is also used herein. In applying

these methods several modifications are necessary. As was discussed

earlier, the viscosity of the mixture is assumed to be that of water up

to an Fo of .9 and that of Nujol from there to 1.0. In the Singh-

Griffith method, the in situ water phase volume fraction alone must be

used up to an Fo of .5. Then the total in situ fluid volume fraction is

used for the remainder. The reason being that the oil bubbles do not

interfere with the water counter-flow until that point. Finally, in

order to truly test these methods and not the void prediction technique,

the actual measured in situ Volume fractions were used where necessary.

Table 3 summarizes the results obtained from these methods, while Fig-

ures 28 and 29 show a comparison between the actual values of the gra-

vity and friction pressure losses against estimated values. As can be

seen, the gravity pressure loss estimates are very good, however the

friction pressure loss estimates vary in success.

The inconsistency of the various friction pressure loss prediction

methods is the result of the variety of flow regimes encountered as Fo

is varied. Appendix C, outlines these regimes in detail. As a result,

the Singh-Griffith method fails in the slug and quasi annular areas and

the Annular method fails in slug and froth flow. The Lockhart-Martin-

elli method applies only where its data base applies. Consequently,

no method alone adequately predicts the friction pressure loss. Instead,

a combination of methods must be employed.

The above data suggests the following assortment of methods be used

to achieve acceptible pressure loss predictions. For gravity pressure

loss the Singh-Griffith methods are recommended:

method. In this region the flow is predominately slug flow which this

method is based upon.

b. Water froth boundary <Fo< oil froth-water bubble boundary:

The McAdams-Homogeneous method. In this region the fluid is in a froth

state and the oil and water are mixed fairly uniformly. Also, the form

of the air slugs is somewhat broken up. This method does not follow the

actual values well, however, the average values match.

c. F >.9: The Quasi Annular Flow method. In this region the slugs0

of air become exceedingly long while the velocity of the oil on the

wall reverses to an upward velocity, characteristic of annular flow.

However, oil slugs are still present. The resulting values follow the

actual pressure losses rather well.

When the estimates for the gravity and friction pressure losses are

combined, acceptible estimates of the total pressure are obtained. Table

3 for all test values and Figure 31 for a mixture velocity of 12 ft./sec.

show the comparison of actual to estimated values of total pressure loss.

Although the individual pressures vary, the average deviation for the

12 ft//sec. case is .016 psi. Finally it should be noted that at low

velocities the negative friction pressure loss discussed earlier causes

the estimated values of total pressure to be consistently high.

D. Contact Angle Data

The results of the contact angle test are shown in Table 4. All

materials except glass were preferentially wetted by the oil. This in-

dicates that the oil would be expected next to the tube.where the contact

angle influence predominates. This, however, as indicated earlier is in

opposition to the effects of density. In the case of glass, however,

we can expect the water to remain next to the wall totally. This is be-

cause the contact angle and density effect are reinforcing.

The metals tested are those normally used in commercial piping. The

contact angles of these metals are similar to those of plexiglass.

Therefore, the trends and data obtained herein may be transferred, while

those of tests in glass tubes should be employed only after the effect

of contact angle has been proven negligible. Finally, these contact

angle measurements are static tests and the dynamic contact angles may

vary.

CHAPTER VI

CONCLUSIONS

A. GENERAL

1. The gas void fraction for a three phase slug flow may be deter-

mined by treating the two liquid phases as a single phase and using the

Zuber Findley Plot.

2. The individual In Situ Liquid Phase Volume fractions can be

correlated through knowledge of the gas void fraction, oil-in-liquid

volume fraction and the liquid mass flow rates. See equation 5.12.

3. The relative velocities of the two liquids and the friction

pressure loss depend on which fluid dominates the flow next to the wall.

4. The transition from water on the wall to oil on the wall depends

on the relative liquid flows only.

5. Two phase oil-water flow is the limiting case of a three phase

air-oil-water flow with negligible air flow.

6. A combination of pressure drop prediction methods based on flow

regime is necessary to adequately predict the pressure losses of a three

phase flow.

B. SPECIFIC

1. The transition from water on the wall to oil on the wall is in-

dependent of the gas flow rate and may be predicted using a flow.regime

map based on pressure deviations with the superficial water velocity as

Page 78: PRESSURE DROP AND PHASE FRACTION ARTHUR R. SHEAN S.B ...

78

a parameter.

2. In preparing engineering estimates of the friction pressure loss

the viscosity of water may be used as the effective fluid viscosity up

to the transition from liquid froth flow to oil dominated liquid flow.

After which the viscosity of the oil may be used.

3. A flow regime map based on two phase oil-water flow may be used

successfully to predict three phase flow liquid regime transitions.

4. The contact angles observed in these flow experiments are simi-

lar to those expected in actual applications.

CHAPTER VII

SUGGESTIONS FOR FURTHER WORK

The following further work is suggested:

A. The current work was performed at near atmospheric conditions.

Hence, further testing should be performed at elevated pressures.

B. The mass flow rates for these tests did not vary substantially.

Therefore, work with larger flow rates should be'examined in order to

determine the influence on the In Situ Oil phase Volume Fraction pre-

diction correlation.

C. At the transition from water froth to oil froth at an F ofo

about .85, the friction pressure loss abruptly rose then fell. The

hypothysis that this pressure jump is caused by the shearing of oil

bubbles between the wall and the air slugs should be verified'or dis-

missed.

D. Further work should be done to verify and refine the Govier

flow regime map for three phase flow.

E. Finally a method of dealing with the negative friction pressure

loss effect should be investigated.

APPENDIX B: Analysis of Parametric Effects on Two Phase Friction

Pressure Loss.

The data obtained in the two phase portion of this experimentation

can be combined with the constant velocity data obtained from Govier,

Sullivan and Wood (Table B-i) to ascertain the influences on the fric-

tion pressure loss of the diameter, viscosity of the fluid, and the mix-

ture velocity. The results of this comparison are shown in Figures B1

to B7. From these figures we may conclude the following:

1. A variation in the diameter of the tube shows no definite in-

fluence on the pressure loss, however the location of the transition

from water on the wall to oil is not influenced. Figs. B1 and B2.

2. The viscosity of the oil influenced the level of pressure loss

after the transition. As a result we see clearly where the viscosity

of the water is important and where the oil predominates. Also, the

oil viscosity did not influence the location of the transition F

Figs. B3 and B4.

3. Finally the mixture velocity influences the level of the pres-

sure loss, but again the transition F is relatively independent. Figs.

B5 to B7.

APPENDIX C: Flow Regime Visual Observations.

Figure C1 shows a typical friction pressure loss curve disected in-

to four main flow regime areas. The variation of this curve is keyed to

Govier's flow regime map (Fig. 14) and can be explained as follows:

A. O<F <a: In this region the water predominates the fluid flow

and can be characterized as a typical slug flow. Figure C2 shows a

typical view of the tube. In region A the fluid is in counter flow a-

round the air slugs while in region B the fluid flows at a rate commensu-

rate with that of the air slugs. The oil is distributed throughout the

water in small bubbles. At higher velocities the negative shear around

the air slugs is small compared to that in the liquid slugs. As does

Singh and Griffith the negative shear can be assumed to be neglected in

most cases. When the oil in liquid volume fraction is increased from O,

the size of the liquid slugs decreases and the counterflow area thickens.

This causes a decrease in the friction pressure loss. This decrease

continues until the regime change at a.

B. a<F <b: At the transition a, the liquid flow changes to a

froth. The water still predominates the flow (Fig. C3) next to the wall,

but the oil bubbles in the water slug area begin to coalesce into oil

slugs. The area A is still in counterflow, however in area B the water

flow around the oil slugs in cocurrent. Hence the effective length of

the water slugs begins to increase and the friction loss increases. As

the water in the fluid slug is completely replaced by oil, the layer of

water on the tube wall becomes thinner and thinner until at the transi-

tion b the layer is too thin to contain any oil bubbles, and the bubbles

are sheared between the wall and the air slugs. When this occurs the

friction loss makes a sharp upward jump until the oil bubbles are forced

out of the water layer. The pressure jump is point b on Figure C1.

C. b<Fo<c: At b the flow changes from water dominated froth to oil

froth and the water is considered to be bubbles of water in oil. The

exception is that a thin layer of water still persists on the wall of

the tube. However, this layer is too thin to contain any oil bubbles.

The laminar nature of the oil flow dampens the turbulence of the water

and air and transition to pure slug flow is quickly achieved. At point

c, full slug flow is achieved and the water is finally replaced by oil

on the wall. When this occurs the counterflow friction loss dominated

now by the viscosity of the oil, decreases. This dip can be seen at

point c in Figure C1.

D. c<Fol.O: In this region the flow transitions from pure slug

flow to a quasi annular flow. As Fo increases, the counterflow velocity

region (A in Fig. C5) reverses to co-current and increases in thickness

while that of the slug region (B) decreases in size. After this reversal

the combination of the oil viscosity and the increased upward velocity

cause a sharp rise in the pressure losses. Again, this is apparent in

Figure C1.

APPENDIX D: Derivation of Annular Flow Pressure Drop

Annular flow is characterized by a continuous

column of gas and a continuous annulus of fluid

in co-current flow (A in Fig. D1) while slug flow

is characterized by counter fluid flow over the

gas slugs and co-current flow in the fluid slugs A

(B in Fig. D1). However, in the transition

both co-current annulus and slug fluid flows

occur simultaneously. Therefore the basis of B

this method is the assumption that transition flow

can be modeled as a basic annular flow with a

decreased annular fluid velocity. The decrease

accounts for the remaining fluid slugs. In addition,

in calculating the friction pressure loss the

modified annular velocity of the fluid in the annulus

is assumed to be the velocity of the fluid flowing alone

tube.

Based on this the following pressure loss analysis is derived:

Re = KQfDPf (D 3)

AafPfgo

Due to the high viscosity of the Nujol, the oil flow was laminar

throughout the experiment. Hence the laminar friction factor equation

is used.

f = 16 = 16AfPfgo (D 4)

Ref KQfDpf

The shear stress is then:

T = fpv = 8fKQf (D 5)

2go AafD

and the friction pressure loss is:

APf = 4 = 32K pfQf (D 6)DD ADZaf

which is a constant (K) times the loss associated with a complete annu-

lar flow.

In calculating the total friction pressure loss of the flow, we

must recognize the transitional nature of the flow. That is, both annu-

lar and slug flows contribute to the loss. Therefore, we can assume

that the total loss due to friction will be a portion of a full annular

flow superimposed over the slug losses. We may then say that the total

friction pressure loss is as follows:

Page 103: PRESSURE DROP AND PHASE FRACTION ARTHUR R. SHEAN S.B ...

103

Apf = K fannularf + (1-K)APf (D 7)annular slug

The annular flow portion is calculated as in equation D 6 while the slug

flow portion can be assumed to be that at Fo equal to zero where slug

flow predominates.

Finally, the weighting factor K must be determined. In the flow

investigated the quasi annular flow appeared only above the froth criti-

cal oil in liquid volume fraction. In this case approximately .85. Al-

so, the flow was nearly annular at Fo equal to one. If, based on this,

we assign a value of .9 to K at Fo equal to one, we may linearly inter-

polate the values of K as shown in Fig. D 2.

The values for the total friction pressure loss derived from the

above analysis are shown in Table 3 of the main text and show very close

results.
