Liquid holdup correlation for inclined two-phase stratified flow in pipes

Abstract EN

In this study, set of explicit equations to predict the liquid holdup in inclined stratified, two-phase, gas-liquid flow has been developed.

This study is similar to Abdul Majeed's study for predict the liquid holdup in horizontal pipes.

The experimental tests conducted from several sources published in the literature and other unpublished selected from the Iraq-Oil wells.

The comparison achieved using the FPR function versus many of previous studies.

The comparison reveals that the present correlation is semi-identification with the original correlation by Taitel-Dukler model and it displays that the suggested correlation has the best performance than the others.
