Numerical simulation of pig motion in gas and liquid pipelines using the Flux-Corrected Transport method

The transportation of fluids in long pipelines occurs very often in the oil and gas industries. To keep high efficiency and productivity in pipeline operations, a device called pig is routinely passed throughout the pipeline for the purpose of cleaning, inspection, sealing, corrosion evaluation, amo...
