Experimental investigation of high-viscosity oil–water flow in vertical pipes: flow patterns and pressure gradient

Abstract Flow experiments have been conducted for two-phase flow in a vertical pipe. The experiments were made for highly viscous oil–water in a stainless pipe at 250 psig pressure through the laboratory-scale flow test equipment. The test section used is a vertical transparent tube of 50 cm length...
