Benefits of technology

This patented technology improves upon existing methods used with gases like methane (CH4) due to its simplicity and ease of implementation compared to other ways of separating liquids. By placing a separate vessel containing an air/water mixture called a separation tube near the bottom of the pipelines where gas can leave under certain conditions, the process becomes simpler because no pumps have been needed instead. Additionally, if some liquid droplets break up into smaller particles before reaching the top part of the system, they may fall down onto another section without affecting their movement within the system. Overall, these technical improvements make efficient and cost-effective processes for removing impurities from gases.

Problems solved by technology

This patented technical problem addressed by this patents relates to improving the accuracy of measuring liquids (oil) containing suspended solid particles such as mist or ice crystals during transportation pipelines for natural gases.

Abstract

The invention discloses a metering device for condensate natural gas pipelines facilitating use of a turbine flowmeter. The metering device comprises a fluid pipeline and a metering device arranged on the fluid pipeline. A separation tank is connected with the fluid pipeline in series and disposed at the front end of the metering device. The fluid pipeline on the outlet side of the separation tank is connected to the top or the side surface of the separation tank, in which a spiral separator is arranged. The spiral separator is in the barrel-shaped structure that the lower end of the spiral separator is provided with an inlet, the side surface of the spiral separator is provided with an outlet and a spiral flow channel is arranged between the inlet and the outlet. The fluid pipeline on the outlet side of the separation tank is connected with an outlet of the spiral separator. A liquid outlet pipe is arranged on the separation tank and connected with a block valve in series. The metering device for condensate natural gas pipelines facilitating use of the turbine flowmeter has following beneficial effects: the metering device has a simple structure and can be accurately metering a gaseous fluid of condensate natural gas; gas-liquid separation is achieved so that collection and disposal of subsequent condensed liquid are conveniently performed; and corrosion of gas-phase fluid downstream equipment is minimized or avoided.
