Abstract
The present invention discloses a fully visual flow loop system for studying hydrate blockage. The fully visual flow loop system includes a first pipeline, a second pipeline, a third pipeline and a fourth pipeline connected successively in an end-to-end way; a single screw pump is connected between the first pipeline and the fourth pipeline from the four pipelines; the first pipeline, the second pipeline, the third pipeline and the fourth pipeline are all transparent to light; a plurality of CCD cameras are arranged between the first pipeline, the second pipeline, the third pipeline and the fourth pipeline; and, the fully visual flow loop system is arranged in a stepping low-temperature thermostatic chamber; a solution injection system can inject a solution into the fully visual flow loop system; a separation and collection system can separate and recover the solution; and a data acquisition system can integrate sensor information in all the other systems and give real-time feedback to ensure reasonable and coordinated operation of all systems. The fully visual flow loop system for studying hydrate blockage in the present invention can realize full visualization and real-time monit…
