原油从生产中心或输油泵站向脱水站长距离输送时,多数情况下都伴有很多的生产水,而且它常常形成致密的乳状液,从而使油水混合物呈现为非牛顿流体。为了设计输送非牛顿流体的管线,已建立了许多有效的方法。然而常常需要作的事情则是很快地估算已建管线的能力,特别是在管线暂时增加负荷而让其他管线 Crude oil, when delivered from a production center or pumping station to a dewatering station, is often accompanied by much production water, and it often forms a dense emulsion that renders the oil-water mixture a non-Newtonian fluid. In order to design a pipeline to deliver non-Newtonian fluids, many effective methods have been established. What often needs to be done, however, is to quickly estimate the capacity of the pipeline already built, especially if the pipeline temporarily increases its load while leaving other pipelines
