In the engineering field, emulsions and liquid-liquid two-phase flows within centrifugal
pumps are generally unwanted as emulsions will have negative effects on pump operation …

Oil–water dispersed flow occurs commonly in the petroleum industry during the production
and transportation of crudes. Phase inversion occurs when the dispersed phase grows into …

Crude oil and formation water from a reservoir is produced under conditions that often favor
the formation and flow of emulsions towards and inside the processing facility. Except for …

Before being fed into the separators, a pump is often used to maintain adequate flowing
pressure of oil/water emulsion in a production conduit, especially in a depleted or matured …

Nanoparticles (NP) stabilized oil-water emulsion flow is studied experimentally and
theoretically for both hydrophilic and hydrophobic NP, under Water Sweep (WS) and Oil …

An experimental and theoretical investigation of surfactant-stabilized oil/water emulsion
characteristics was carried out under water sweep (WS) and oil sweep (OS) conditions. Both …

Production equipment, such as pumps and chokes, cause shear in oil/water‐mixture flow
and form smaller droplets in the system, which might lead to operational and separation …

Experimental and theoretical investigation of surfactant stabilized oil-water emulsion
characteristics is carried out for Water Sweep (WS) and Oil Sweep (OS) conditions. Both …
