This article analyzes the design of the power part of gas separators of various manufacturers, reveals the causes of backflows, which can lead to hydro-abrasive wear of the elements of the flow-through part, reduction of the separation properties as a result of the gas-liquid mixture flow dispersion, and decrease of pressure gradient in the separation chamber. A mathematical model was selected, hydrodynamic calculations of design options and upgrading were carried out, and animproved flow part of the separator was developed. Bench tests were conducted to confirm the improved parameter of the product.
This article is devoted to the model of a borehole centrifugal pump developed at the Department of Hydraulics of Bauman Moscow State Technical University. A universal layout has been developed for testing the stages of pumps of this type in a certain range of parameters. The article describes the mathematical model used. A comparison of numerical and field experiments is given. A problem has been identified when comparing their results.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
