Hello guys,
I came across a situation today where by I calculated the erosional velocity limit for a predominantly gas stream with little condensate with in it at pressure of 70 bar, the erosional velocity (with sand service) predicted via the Salama Method has a larger magnitude that the erosional velocity (no-sand service) predicted via the same method (i.e. v (ft/s) = 400 * sqrt (mixture density in lb/ft3). How come?
Has anyone encountered this before? Can anyone shed some light on what are the limitations to the Salama method?
regards,
Radionise
