Calculation of volume fractions on biphasic stratified regime using gamma ray transmission

The pipelines always operate pressurized, establishing the transport of the different petroleum products, as: gasoline, diesel, kerosene. During the change of the pumped fluid, in a period, two distinct fluids are in direct contact with one another inside the duct, and the contaminations are inevitable. This process defines a region in the fluid called the interface that causes losses. Thus, this work presents a methodology to evaluate the sensitivity of the transmitted gamma densitometry technique in the study of the calculation of fluid volume fractions using the MCNP-X code for identify the interface region of fluids.
