In this study, the performance of horizontally mounted Venturi meters in low-pressure wet gas flow is discussed. Three 50 mm Venturi meters were tested systematically, with fl values of 0.4048, 0.55 and 0.70, the opera- tion pressure of 0.15 MPa, 0.20 MPa, 0.25 MPa, the gas densiometric Froude number from 0.6 to 2.0, the modified Lockhart-Maretinelli parameter from 0.0022 to 0.06, and the ratio of the gas liquid mass flow rate from 0.5 to 0.99. The effects of modified Lockhart-Maretinelli parameter, pressure, gas densiometric Froude number, diameter ratio, and gas-liquid mass flow rate ratio to the Venturi tube are analyzed with new independent data. Furthermore, low-pressure performance was compared with that under high pressure.展开更多

The authors assessed the clinical parameters of the disease, including ESR （erythrocyte sedimentation rate）, CRP （C-reactive protein）, and RF （rheumatoid factor）. Serum levels of iron and TIBC （total iron binding capacity） were measured spectrophotometrically, while TS% （transferrin saturation percentage） and transferrin concentration were calculated mathematically. Serum concentrations of IL-6 （interleukin-6） and ferritin were measured using an ELISA （enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay）. The results of serum concentration of IL-6 （interleukin-6） and ferritin were significantly elevated （P 〈 0.0001） in patients with RA compared to those of healthy controls. On the other hand, serum concentrations of iron, TIBC （total iron binding capacity）, TS% （transferrin saturation percentage） and transferrin concentration were significantly decreased in patients with RA compared with those of healthy controls. These findings suggest that anemia is the most frequent observations in patients with RA and mostly associative with increasing level of interleukin-6.展开更多

文摘The performance of a Venturi tube used in wet gas flow have been explored mainly under higher-pressure condition, but very often, low-pressure test exists in some oil and gas fields in Tianjin Dagang Oil and Gas Field in China. In this study, the performance of horizontally mounted Venturi meters in low-pressure wet gas flow is discussed. Three 50 mm Venturi meters were tested systematically, with fl values of 0.4048, 0.55 and 0.70, the opera- tion pressure of 0.15 MPa, 0.20 MPa, 0.25 MPa, the gas densiometric Froude number from 0.6 to 2.0, the modified Lockhart-Maretinelli parameter from 0.0022 to 0.06, and the ratio of the gas liquid mass flow rate from 0.5 to 0.99. The effects of modified Lockhart-Maretinelli parameter, pressure, gas densiometric Froude number, diameter ratio, and gas-liquid mass flow rate ratio to the Venturi tube are analyzed with new independent data. Furthermore, low-pressure performance was compared with that under high pressure.
