Synopsis

Flow Analysis for Hydrocarbon Pipeline Engineering gives engineers a tool to help them determine fluid dynamics. The book describes hydrocarbon fluid transport in pipelines by presenting useful applied thermodynamic derivations specialized for pipelines. All transport phenomena is covered, such as heat, momentum and mass transport. Moving past the fundamentals, the reference addresses the complexity of these fluids and dedicates a chapter on multiphase mixtures, including slugging, hydrates, wax and sand. Rounding out with practical case studies, this book delivers a critical reference for engineers and flow assurance experts that will help them correlate basic fluid principles with applied engineering practices.

• Includes discussions on sustainable operations such as CO2 transport in pipelines utilized in carbon capture and hydrocarbon recovery operations
• Delivers multiple case studies for practical applications and lessons learned
• Describes hydrocarbon fluid transport in pipelines by presenting useful applied thermodynamic derivations specialized for pipelines

From the Back Cover

Multiphase fluid dynamics and flow assurance is a growing area of a low-risk and cost-effective necessity in the petroleum industry as more pipelines are needed to transport increasing energy demand. Flow Analysis for Hydrocarbon Pipeline Engineering gives engineers a tool to bridge between fluid dynamics describing hydrocarbon fluids transport in pipelines into useful applied thermodynamic derivations specialized for pipelines. All transport phenomena of fluids are included such as heat, momentum, and mass transport. Moving past the fundamentals, the reference addresses the complexity of these fluids dedicating a chapter on multiphase mixtures including slugging, hydrates, wax, and sand. Rounding out with practical case studies, Flow Analysis for Hydrocarbon Pipeline Engineering delivers a critical reference for engineers and flow assurance experts to correlate basic fluid principles with applied engineering practices.
