ABSTRACT:
A method and corresponding system is provided for determining fluid properties of a two phase fluid flowing through various portions of a wellbore. Specifically, the method and corresponding system determines fluid properties (e.g. enthalpy flux) of the two phase fluid flowing upstream of the injector portion of the wellbore as well as fluid properties (e.g., mass flow rate and enthalpy flux) of the two phase fluid at various measurement locations along the injector.
