This book provides design engineers using gas-liquid two-phase flow in different industrial applications the necessary fundamental understanding of the two-phase flow variables. Two-phase flow literature reports a plethora of correlations for determination of flow patterns, void fraction, two- phase pressure drop and non-boiling heat transfer correlations. However, the validity of a majority of these correlations is restricted over a narrow range of two -phase flow conditions. Consequently, it is quite a challenging task for the end user to select an appropriate correlation/model for the type of two-phase flow under consideration. Selection of a correct correlation also requires some fundamental understanding of the two-phase flow physics and the underlying principles/assumptions/limitations associated with these correlations. Thus, it is of significant interest for a design engineer to have knowledge of the flow patterns and their transitions and their influence on two-phase flow variables. To address some of these issues and facilitate selection of appropriate two-phase flow models, this volume presents a succinct review of the flow patterns, void fraction, pressure drop and non-boiling heat transfer phenomenon and recommend some of the well scrutinized modeling techniques.

A literature search and subsequent analysis of the various aspects of two-phase gas-liquid flow patterns was carried out. this report presents the literature review. a brief description of the commonly observed flow patterns in horizontal and vertical flow is presented. over 200 flow pattern maps and 50 flow regime transition correlations are reviewed. experimental techniques for direct and indirect determination of flow regimes are discussed. these methods include direct photography, x-ray and statistical techniques and electrical and optical probes. the effects of various parameters on flow patterns are also described. finally, an attempt has been made to identify areas where new development work is needed. the appendix to this report contains published data and computer programs for flow regime determination.

This is an up-to-date review of recent advances in the study of two-phase flows, with focus on gas-liquid flows, liquid-liquid flows, and particle transport in turbulent flows. The book is divided into several chapters, which after introducing basic concepts lead the reader through a more complex treatment of the subjects. The reader will find an extensive review of both the older and the more recent literature, with abundance of formulas, correlations, graphs and tables. A comprehensive (though non exhaustive) list of bibliographic references is provided at the end of each chapter. The volume is especially indicated for researchers who would like to carry out experimental, theoretical or computational work on two-phase flows, as well as for professionals who wish to learn more about this topic.

This graduate text provides a unified treatment of the fundamental principles of two-phase flow and shows how to apply the principles to a variety of homogeneous mixture as well as separated liquid-liquid, gas-solid, liquid-solid, and gas-liquid flow problems, which may be steady or transient, laminar or turbulent. Each chapter contains several sample problems, which illustrate the outlined theory and provide approaches to find simplified analytic descriptions of complex two-phase flow phenomena. This well-balanced introductory text will be suitable for advanced seniors and graduate students in mechanical, chemical, biomedical, nuclear, environmental and aerospace engineering, as well as in applied mathematics and the physical sciences. It will be a valuable reference for practicing engineers and scientists. A solutions manual is available to qualified instructors.

The analysis of flow visualization data documenting a variety of fluid phenomena has been severly limited in the past by the subjective nature of data interpretation and limitations imposed by actual sample size. Video digitization offers a reliable method of automating the analysis of such visual data. This paper describes an experiment wherein the distribution of sizes of bubbles formed by air injection into a water stream was found. Previous results were limited to special cases due to the amount of data required for a full documentation. Several geometric and flow parameters were varied and their effects are reported. Data reduction was via a digital image processing system. This type of system holds the promise of high speed, objective data reduction for a broad range of fluid mechanics problems. (Author).
