A CFD Simulation of the Parameters Affecting the Performance of Downhole De-oiling Hydrocyclone

Among the all parameters affecting the performance of a downhole de-oiling hydrocyclone, the investigation of internal flow field deserves more attempts especially in the petroleum industry. In this study, the effects of inlet flow rate, inlet oil volume fraction, and oil droplet diameter on the sep...
