Evolution of Wet Gas Venturi Metering and Wet Gas Correction Algorithms

摘要

The Venturi meter is a straightforward pipeline device used for the metering of gas and liquids. This article presents a brief summary of the creation and characterisation of the modern Venturi meter, including the historic development of public domain algorithms to derive two phase (gas and liquid) flow rates from differential pressure measurements. The use of Venturi meters in multiphase oil and gas flow will also be briefly discussed.
