Pigging is a very important operation for two?-phase flow pipeline.The pigging physical model was analyzed,and the mathematic models for expressing characteristic parameters of slug flow of pig,the dynamic model and numerical calculation method were developed.The mixed Eulerean-Lagrangean approach was used to couple the transient model and the pigging model.An experimental study was carried out to acquire two?-phase transient flow and pigging data of a horizontal pipeline with 380 meters in length and 81 millimeters in diameter.A computer-based data acquisition system was used to obtain the information of flow behaviors during experimental runs.The changes of pressure with time and the pressure profiles at different time alone the pipelines were evaluated and compared fairy well with the experimental data.It shows that the pig in the pipeline has a significant affect on the operation parameters.
