  2. Slugcatcher - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slugcatcher

    Finger type slug catcher at the Qadirpur Gas Field. Slug catchers are designed in different forms, A vessel type slug catcher is essentially a conventional vessel. This type is simple in design and maintenance. A finger type slug catcher consists of several long pieces of pipe ('fingers'), which together form the buffer volume. The advantage of ...

  3. Vapor–liquid separator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vapor–liquid_separator

    A slug catcher is a type of vapor–liquid separator that is able to receive a large inflow of liquid at random times. It is usually found at the end of gas pipelines where condensate may be present as slugs of liquid.

  4. Slug test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slug_test

    A slug test is in contrast to standard aquifer tests, which typically involve pumping a well at a constant flowrate, and monitoring the response of the aquifer in nearby monitoring wells. Often slug tests are performed instead of a constant rate test, because: time constraints (quick results, or results for a large number of wells, are needed),

  5. Sabot (firearms) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sabot_(firearms)

    The sabot component in projectile design is the relatively thin, tough and deformable seal known as a driving band or obturation ring needed to trap propellant gases behind a projectile, and also keep the projectile centered in the barrel, when the outer shell of the projectile is only slightly smaller in diameter than the caliber of the barrel ...

  6. Aquifer test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aquifer_test

    A slug test is a variation on the typical aquifer test where an instantaneous change (increase or decrease) is made, and the effects are observed in the same well. This is often used in geotechnical engineering settings to get a quick estimate (minutes instead of days) of the aquifer properties immediately around the well.

  7. Slug flow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slug_flow

    In fluid mechanics, slug flow in liquid–gas two-phase flow is a type of flow pattern. Lighter, faster moving continuous fluid which contains gas bubbles - pushes along a disperse gas bubble. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] Pressure oscillations within piping can be caused by slug flow. [ 3 ]

  8. Shaped charge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shaped_charge

    This slug is projected toward the target at about two kilometers per second. The chief advantage of the EFP over a conventional (e.g., conical) shaped charge is its effectiveness at very great standoffs, equal to hundreds of times the charge's diameter (perhaps a hundred meters for a practical device).

  9. Slug (projectile) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slug_(projectile)

    An airgun slug is a new [when?} type of pellet recently developed for pre-charged pneumatic airguns. Unlike the conventional diabolo -shaped pellet, which is aerodynamically poor and relies heavily on drag -stabilisation to maintain accuracy, the slug pellet is cylindro-conoidally shaped like a Minié ball and relies predominantly on spin ...
