Oil–water two-phase flow patterns in a horizontal pipe are analyzed with a 16-electrode electrical resistance tomography(ERT) system. The measurement data of the ERT are treated as a multivariate time-series, thus the information extracted from each electrode represents the local phase distribution and fraction change at that location. The multivariate maximum Lyapunov exponent(MMLE) is extracted from the 16-dimension time-series to demonstrate the change of flow pattern versus the superficial velocity ratio of oil to water. The correlation dimension of the multivariate time-series is further introduced to jointly characterize and finally separate the flow patterns with MMLE. The change of flow patterns with superficial oil velocity at different water superficial velocities is studied with MMLE and correlation dimension, respectively, and the flow pattern transition can also be characterized with these two features. The proposed MMLE and correlation dimension map could effectively separate the flow patterns, thus is an effective tool for flow pattern identification and transition analysis.

In the refinery scheduling, operational transitions in mode switching are of great significance to formulate dynamic nature of production and obtain efficient schedules. The discrete-time formulation meets two main challenges in modeling: discrete approximation of time and large size of mixed-integer linear problem(MILP).In this article, a continuous-time refinery scheduling model, which involves transitions of mode switching, is presented due to these challenges. To reduce the difficulty in solving large scale MILPs resulting from the sequencing constraints, the global event-based formulation is chosen. Both transition constraints and production transitions are introduced and the numbers of key variables and constraints in both of the discrete-time and continuous-time formulations are analyzed and compared. Three cases with different lengths of time horizons and different numbers of orders are studied to show the efficiency of the proposed model.

Oil-water two-phase flow exists widely in many industries. Accurate measurement of flow velocity is of significance for quantify the volume or mass flow rate as well as monitor the operation safety. A non-intrusive one-side Continuous Wave Ultrasonic Doppler (CWUD) sensor is presented for measuring the overall superficial velocity of oil-water two-phase flow. The one-side CWUD sensor consists of two-chip transducer with resonant frequency of 1MHz, both of which are installed at the bottom of test pipe, and the sample volume cover the whole radial direction of pipe cross-section. The Doppler shift signal collected by ultrasonic sensor is directly related to the average velocity of dispersed phase within the sample volume of CWUD. The overall superficial flow velocity is derived by a linear correction of measured average velocity, based on the analysis of average Doppler shift properties in different flow conditions, i.e. water continuous flow and oil continuous flow. Dynamic experiments were conducted at a horizontal oil-water two-phase flow loop. It can be found that the average Doppler shift within the sample volume increases with overall superficial flow velocity, however, varies with different continuous phases at the same overall superficial flow velocity. The results show that the mean relative error of overall superficial flow velocity is 3.45%.
