A flow passage structure includes a member. The member includes a plurality of first openings, a plurality of second openings, a flow passage, and a plurality of joining and branching parts. The flow passage connects the first openings with the second openings. The joining and branching parts are provided in the flow passage and each have a plurality of first parts having respective first ends connected with each other and a plurality of second parts having respective second ends connected with each other. The second parts are closer to the second openings than the first parts are, in a path between the first opening and the second opening. The first ends are connected with the second ends in each joining and branching part.

A fluid flow meter system for monitoring fluid flow through a lumen includes a first ultrasonic transducer configured to transmit one or more versions of a transmit (TX) signal through a fluid flowing within the lumen, and a second ultrasonic transducer configured to receive one or more respective receive (RX) signals. The fluid flow meter system includes an analog-to-digital converter (ADC) configured to sample, at a first frequency, the one or more RX ultrasonic signals and a processor configured to generate a fine resolution signal based on the one or more RX ultrasonic signals. The fine resolution signal is associated with a second sampling rate higher than the first sampling rate. The processor is also configured to compute a cross-correlation signal indicative of cross-correlation between the fine resolution signal and a waveform and determine an estimated fluid flow parameter based on the computed cross-correlation signal.

Various systems, methods, and devices are provided for focusing particles suspended within a moving fluid into one or more localized stream lines. The system can include a substrate and at least one channel provided on the substrate having an inlet and an outlet. The system can further include a fluid moving along the channel in a laminar flow having suspended particles and a pumping element driving the laminar flow of the fluid. The fluid, the channel, and the pumping element can be configured to cause inertial forces to act on the particles and to focus the particles into one or more stream lines.

A method for multi-horizon forecasting of gas-liquid slug flow is provided. Field data for a well is obtained. The field data comprises a plurality of features. The plurality of features is correlated across a set of historic data to generate time series data for each of the plurality of features. The time series data is processed by a machine learning model to generate a multi-horizon forecast of a flow pattern for the well, and the output is presented.

The invention relates to the automatic reloading of the gas space of a hydropneumatic accumulator. An apparatus for readjusting the load of the gas space includes a pressurized gas source connected via an air system to a loading check-valve and a reinjection valve controlled by a unit for calculating a cycle for reinjecting gas into the gas space.
