Interactions between the fluid and an isolation tool in a pipe: laboratory experiments and numerical simulation

Abstract A remote-control tether-less isolation tool is a mechanical device that is normally used in pipelines to block the flow at a given position by transforming a blocking module. In this study, the interactions between the fluid and the plug module of the isolation tool were investigated. Simul...
