ASME B31.3 Process Piping Fluid Velocity And Flow Rate

Calculate ASME B31.3 process piping fluid velocity and flow rate for two phase gas liquid piping, and three phase black oil piping (gas water and oil).

The two phase fluid calculator can be used for single phase gas, single phase liquid, or two phase gas and liquid. The three phase black oil calculator can be used for single phase oil, single phase water, two phase oil and water, and three phase oil, water and gas. Water cut is the volume fraction of water in the liquid phase (ignoring the gas phase). Gas oil ratio (GOR) is the ratio of gas moles to liquid volume (ignoring the water phase). Gas moles are commonly measured as gas volume at standard conditions, eg SCM (Standard Conditions Meter) or SCF (Standard Conditions Feet).

CALCULATOR : ASME B31.3 Pipe Fluid Velocity And Flowrate Three Phase Gas Oil And Water [PLUS]   ±

Calculate ASME B31.3 process piping fluid velocity and flowrate for three phase gas oil and water fluid.

Black oil is a three phase mixture of oil, water and gas. Fluid density and flow rate can be calculated for single phase oil, single phase water, single phase gas, two phase oil and water, or three phase gas, oil and water. Water cut is measured relative to the total liquid volume (gas volume is ignored). Gas oil ratio (GOR) is measured relative to the oil volume at standard conditions (water volume is ignored).
