Fluid Principles

In applications, the principles of __________ are used for problems relating to pressure in deep water (pressure increases with depth) and high in the atmosphere (pressure lessens with altitude).

Refers to the mass per unit volume of a fluid. It is an important property of a fluid, as it affects its behavior in a variety of ways.

• Density

• Pressure

• Buoyancy

• Depth

Is a measure of the volume of fluid that passes through a given cross-sectional area of a pipe or channel per unit of time. It is commonly expressed in units of volume per unit of time, such as liters per second (L/s) or cubic meters per hour (m³/h). It provides information about the speed and volume of fluid that is moving through a pipe or channel.

• Cohesive forces

• Flow rate

• Fluid dynamics

• Buoyant force

What is a definition of a fluid

• Always flow from high pressure to low pressure

• Liquids and gases are both fluids

• a material that flows and yields to any force tending to change its shape

• all of the above

What is the purpose of the diverter baffle in a vertical 2 phase separator.

• Forces the fluid to immediately change direction, liquids falling down to the bottom and gas rising to the top

• change the direction on inlet fluids so they swirl around the inside of the vessel like a cyclone.

• reduces the pressure on inlet fluids so they swirl around the inside of the vessel .

• Forces the fluid to immediately change direction, liquids falling down to the bottom and gas going to the bottom of the vessel

All pressure vessels operate as

• flowline segment

• wellhead

• separators

• christmas tree

What principle does stage separation use to remove gases from solution?

• A process where well fluid is separated a liquid

• has vapor phases by two or more equilibrium flashes, consecutively lower pressure

• The equilibrium flashes (pressure drops) occur in separators connected in series.

• all of the above

Which is a metal plate installed in a process vessel that regulates liquid level?

• weir

• level contol valve

• level controller with interface

• oil bucket

Which is a metal box inside a process vessel that receives liquid overflow, usually oil, that has been separated from the process stream?

• Weir

• stilling baffles

• mist extractor

• oil bucket

Which is a metal plate installed in a process vessel inlet which changes the direction of fluid flow?

• mist extractor

• stilling baffle

• diverter baffle

• level controller
