| Summary: | The flow distribution within a reduced scale model pipeline to study and determine the
best splitting device for a horizontal pipeline through experiments were conducted. In this research,
five splitting devices are designed and tested on the model rig. Out of five, only one splitting device
has been chosen that achieved the objective the best; to improve airflow to be a homogeneous flow
in the pipe, or at least reducing and improving from the roping condition. The process of selecting
the best device had been done through qualitative analysis of velocity profile and airflow
distribution obtained from Pitot Tube measurements, besides the airflow pattern and behavior
through PIV results. |
