Abstract: | This work presents a parametric study on a mechanistic model for separating liquid–liquid dispersions in pipes. The model considers drop-settling, drop-interface coalescence and drop-drop coalescence, predicting the evolution of four characteristic layers during separation. Parameter estimation, parametric sensitivity analysis (PSA), and model-based design of experiments (MBDoE) techniques are employed to acquire precise parameter estimates and propose optimal experimental conditions, thereby enhancing the accuracy of existing models. Experimental data from literature using oil-in-water dispersions are used for parameter estimation. PSA reveals regions of high sensitivity of the model outputs to uncertain parameters, which are corresponding to favourable sampling locations. Manipulating the mixture velocity, the dispersed phase fraction, and the layer heights at the inlet influences these sensitive regions. Clustered measurements around highly sensitive regions in the pipe enhance the information content they provide. MBDoE demonstrates that either of the A-, D-, or E-optimal experimental design criteria improves the expected parameter precision. |
