Two-phase flow in the mini pipe is applied in wide fields. The most common of two-phase flow is a couple of gas and liquid. The essential properties of the liquid are density, viscosity, and surface tension. There are many variations of the flow direction, horizontal, incline, and vertical, in terms of orientation. The two-phase investigation of flow pattern and void fraction of air and low surface tension liquid in a 30° inclined small pipe has been carried out. Dry air was used as a gas phase, while the liquid was the mixture solution of distilled water and 3% (by volume) of butanol. Butanol addition aimed to decrease the surface tension, which became 42.9 millinewton/meter, instead of 71 mN/m when using distilled water. The test section was a 130 mm length, 1.6 mm inner diameter circular glass pipe. The rig used was equipped with the air compressor, pressure tank, high-speed camera, liquid flow meter, and gas flow meter. The liquid was fed to the test section by the pressurized tank, instead of directly pumped, to avoid pulsation. Ranges of gas and liquid superficial velocities were 0.025 – 66.3 m/s and 0.033 – 4,935 m/s, respectively. Flow patterns were obtained from the captured high-speed video. Meanwhile, the void fractions were acquired by image processing of the video. As a result, five distinctive flow patterns were observed: plug, slug-annular, churn, bubbly, and annular. The separated flow was absent. The change of the liquid surface tension affected the shifting of some transition boundary lines in the flow pattern map. The transition line between slug-annular and annular against churn flow was shifted to the lower side or toward lower JL when the liquid surface tension decreased. In short, the churn flow was easier to be formed when the liquid surface tension was lower.
