Abstract The supersonic separator has proved to be an effective method to condense and separate CO2 from natural gas, and the inlet temperature plays a vital role
on condensation characteristics of CO2 in the supersonic separator due to the instability temperature of wellhead natural gas. In this paper, the physical and
mathematical models for the supersonic condensation process of CO2 in the natural gas were established on the basis of CO2 droplet surface tension,
nucleation and growth model. The flow and condensation parameters were investigated under different temperature conditions. The results show that when
the inlet gas pressure… More >
