Divided-flow split-phase type two-phase fluid flow measuring method
The invention belongs to the flow measurement technology field, further relate to the measuring method of interior gas-liquid two-phase fluid flow of a kind of pipeline and component.
In oil thermal recovery, the steam that injects in the oil well is steam-water two-phase fluid potpourri, require accurately metering and control to inject the steam flow and the component of every mouthful of well on the oil production technology, also need simultaneously to detect with the reasonable distribution steam injection pipe network in the steam flow and the component of each arm.Be generally rock gas-oil water mixture in oil recovery and petroleum pipeline, the metering of oil and gas production and the detection of petroleum pipeline all need the two-phase fluid flowmeter.The flow operating mode that also usually occurs various gas-liquid two-phase fluids in addition in other industry and civil pipeline has only the two-phase fluid of use flowmeter accurately its flow of metering and component.
Lin Zonghu " gas-liquid-solid multiphase flow measurement " (China Measuring Press, 1988) book chapter 3, chapter 4 and chapter 6 third and fourth, five the joint in, summed up each sharp two-phase fluid flow and component measuring method.These methods all directly place two-phase fluid to measure measurement instrument.R Thorn " Recent developments in three-phase flowmeasurement " (Measurement Science ﹠amp; Technology, Vol 8, N07,1997, pp691-701) in the literary composition, summarized the latest developments of various gas-oil water mixture measuring method.Equally, these methods also all directly place two-phase fluid to measure measurement instrument.Because a notable feature of two-phase fluid is to flow to have strong undulatory property, and along with the variation of two-phase fluid component, flow pattern is also constantly changing.Therefore, the instrument of on-line operation in two-phase fluid, the quality of its output signal is generally relatively poor, and undulatory property is big, and measuring accuracy is low, and measurement range is little.
The conventional way that addresses this problem is at first to adopt separation vessel that two-phase fluid is separated into single phase gas and single-phase liquid, then respectively with single-phase flowmeter metering.A book chapter 6 the 6th saves this method of having introduced to Lin Zonghu in " gas-liquid-solid multiphase flow measurement " (China Measuring Press, 1988).But its disadvantage is that the volume of separation vessel is too huge, the cost height, and resistance is big.Thereby should not make the instrument widespread use.
The objective of the invention is to solve the defective of above prior art, a kind of divided-flow split-phase type two-phase fluid flow measuring method is provided.Adopt this method both can make the metering of two-phase fluid change into the metering of monophasic fluid, do not make the volume of separation vessel excessive again simultaneously, become widespread use so that make instrument.
The present invention is by the method for shunting phase-splitting, at first distribute a part of two-phase fluid pro rata by divider, then use separation vessel that this part two-phase fluid is separated into single phase gas and single-phase liquid, measure and be converted under a proportional relationship the flow and the component of tested two-phase fluid then respectively with single phase gas flowmeter and single-phase liquid flowmeter, respectively this part single phase gas and single-phase liquid are returned in the flow duct of two-phase fluid more at last.

Referring now to Fig. 1, Fig. 2, Fig. 3, the present invention is elaborated.In Fig. 1, the flow duct of the tested two-phase fluid of 1 expression.2 expression dividers.Tested two-phase fluid at first enters divider, and two-phase fluid is divided into some parts (5~50 parts) in divider, and each part all occupies a not connected space cell individually, and guarantees that the flow in each unit is all identical with component; And then shunt after flowing through divider, select the fewer cells in the divider to lead to separation vessel 3, all the other still lead to pipeline 1; In separation vessel, the two-phase fluid in the selected unit is separated into single phase gas and single-phase liquid; Single phase gas enters gas meter 5 by gasmetry pipeline 4 and measures; Single-phase liquid enters liquid flowmeter 7 by liquid measure pipeline 6 and measures; In single phase gas after the metering and single-phase liquid difference Returning pipe 1.At last, under a proportional relationship the reading of gas meter and liquid flowmeter is converted into the flow and the component of tested two-phase fluid.8 expression resistance pieces.The characteristic of proportionate relationship depends on the characteristic of resistance piece and leads to the number of unit of separation vessel.
In Fig. 2, the flow duct of the tested two-phase fluid of 1 expression, 9 expression shunting separation vessels, it is the merging body of divider and separation vessel.Can tell a part of single phase gas by the shunting separation vessel from tested two-phase fluid, this part single phase gas enters gas meter 5 through gasmetry pipeline 4 and measures, in the single phase gas Returning pipe 1 after the metering.At last, under a proportional relationship the reading of gas meter is converted into the flow or the component of tested two-phase fluid.8 expression resistance pieces, its characteristic has determined the characteristic of proportionate relationship.This method is a kind of reduction procedure, is applicable in the two-phase fluid that flow or one of them parameter of component are occasion known and that air content is higher relatively.
In Fig. 3, the flow duct of the tested two-phase fluid of 1 expression, 9 expression shunting separation vessels, it is the merging body of divider and separation vessel.Symmetrical with Fig. 2, can from tested two-phase fluid, tell a part of single-phase liquid by the shunting separation vessel, this part single-phase liquid enters liquid flowmeter 7 through measuring channel 6 and measures, in the single-phase liquid Returning pipe 1 after the metering.At last, under a proportional relationship the reading of liquid flowmeter is converted into the flow or the component of tested two-phase fluid.8 expression resistance pieces, its characteristic has determined the characteristic of proportionate relationship.This method also is a kind of reduction procedure, is applicable in the two-phase fluid that flow or one of them parameter of component are occasion known and that air content is less relatively.
