Resumo

This report investigates the response in material volume fraction (MVF) prediction system for water-gas-oil multiphase flows considering variations up to 16% in salinity of water. The approach is based on pulse height distributions (PHD) pattern recognition by means of artificial neural network (ANN) [1]. Theoretical models for annular and stratified flow regimes have been developed using MCNP-X code to provide data for the network.
