MSC Project Proposal Form March 11

This document outlines an MSc project to model gas condensate flow in pipelines using computational fluid dynamics (CFD). The student will develop a CFD model to simulate key parameters and compare results to an existing model. The project will include a literature review on pipeline design, developing the mathematical and CFD models, running simulations, comparing CFD and alternative model results, and analyzing and reporting findings. There are no anticipated threats, risks, ethics, or confidentiality issues associated with the work.

two-phase

developed to describe the formation and flow dynamics of gas condensate in horizontal natural gas pipelines. The two major constituents of the model, hydrodynamics and phase behaviour, are coupled through the phasegeneration/disappearance-related terms in the continuity and momentum equations. The resulting model equations were numerically solved using semi-implicit Runge-Kutta method combined with step-size adjustment strategy together with java application software. In this report CFD software would be used to model the parametric variables and the results obtained would be superimposed on the Java software result. It was demonstrated by Olafedehan O.A. 2009 that the model is capable of predicting the amount, quantity and distribution of condensate in pipelines to other sought engineering variable. Therefore, CFD would be used to compare and investigate. Contribution to theory or practice: Using CFD technique to Investigate and predict the hydrodynamic behaviour of two-phase gas/gas condensate and comparison with existing results.
