TLDR
In this article, a wet gas response of the horizontally installed cone differential pressure (DP) meter is discussed, considering the significant influence of the liquid properties on wet gas flow patterns and the corresponding influence of flow pattern on the cone DP meter's liquid phase induced gas flow rate prediction error.

Orifice plate meter wet gas flow performance

TL;DR: In this paper, a wet gas flow correlation for 2″ to 4″ orifice plate meters has been developed from multiple data sets from four wet gas test facilities, which corrects the liquid induced gas flow rate error for a known liquid flow rate to ±2% at a 95% confidence level.

A new correlation for wet gas flow rate measurement with Venturi meter based on two-phase mass flow coefficient

TL;DR: In this article, a new correlation for wet gas flow rate measurement with Venturi meter based on a two-phase mass flow coefficient was proposed, which linearly increases with the Lockhart-Martinelli parameter and decreases with the increase of the gas-to-liquid density ratio.

A model for predicting flow regime transitions in horizontal and near horizontal gas-liquid flow

TL;DR: In this article, a generalized flow regime map based on this theory is presented, which is used for determining flow regime transitions in two-phase gas-liquid flow, and the mechanisms for transition are based on physical concepts and are fully predictive.

Research Note: Two-Phase Flow through Sharp-Edged Orifices:

TL;DR: In this article, the velocity ratio is assumed to be constant during flow through the orifice, and on this basis analysis of the data leads to the following equations for velocity ratio: for X ≥ 1, K = (pL/pHOM)1/2 for X ≤ 1,

Flow of Incompressible Two-Phase Mixtures through Sharp-Edged Orifices:

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors developed an equation for the flow of gas-liquid or vapour-liquid mixtures through sharp-edged orifices under conditions where the density change of the gas or liquid through the orifice is negligible.
