Experimental investigation of gas–oil–water phase flow in vertical pipes: influence of gas injection on the total pressure gradient

Abstract Experimental work has been conducted to study the influence of gas injection on the phase inversion between oil and water flowing in a vertical pipe. A vertical transparent pipe test section line of 40 mm ID and 50 cm length was used. The test fluids used were synthetic oil and filtered tap...
