An expression is obtained for void fraction in two-phase flow based upon a simple physical model. The model assumes an annular flow regime with a liquid phase and a homogeneous mixture phase flowing with equal dynamic head. Excellent correlation is obtained with a wide range of experimental data, indicating a significant improvement over current methods.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
