ABSTRACT:
Known drips for gas transmission pipelines do not work effectively for two phase liquid-gas flows. Disclosed is a drip having two parts; a flow separator and a receptacle. The flow separator comprises a pipe having circumferential apertures in the wall. Surrounding the pipe and the apertures is a shell that defines an annular passage between the pipe wall and the shell. Annular gas liquid flow entering the separator will be divided. Most of the gas will pass the apertures and continue through the pipe. Most if not all of the liquid and some gas will pass through the aperture. It is then passed to a receptacle where the fluid is removed. The secondary gas flow is then either recombined with the main flow or can be diverted to a secondary system. Periodically the liquid collected in the receptacle can be emptied.
