Enhancing Oil & Gas and Chemical Industry Applications with AFT Fathom 13’s 4-Component Slurry Model
The Role of Slurry Flow Simulation in Oil & Gas and Chemical Industries In oil & gas and chemical processing industries, slurry transport is a major challenge due to the presence of solid-laden fluids, high-pressure environments, and complex multiphase interactions. Poor slurry flow management can lead to: Pipeline blockages and erosion, increasing maintenance costs. Pump inefficiencies, leading to increased energy consumption. Unstable […]
