A modified heat transfer correlation for two-phase flow

Heat transfer and multiphase flow with hydrate formation in subsea pipelines

“…Unlike the model of Dorstewitz and Mewes [15], this paper predicts the hydrate layer based on the deposition of solid particles on the pipe wall, by considering both the kinetic energy of the particle and the coagulation of the hydrate layer over time. Vaze and Banerjee [16] developed experimental correlation for determining heat transfer coefficients in two phase flows. The results indicate that the heat transfer coefficient could be determined from a known Nusselt number of the flow regime.…”
