Experimental Data on Phase Distribution in the Upward High Pressure Steam-Water Flowin a Vertical Tube Under Annular-Dispersed Regime. Part 2. Structural and Local Hydrodynamic Characteristics of Flow

A prediction method for entrained liquid fraction in adiabatic gas-liquid flow at high reduced pressure

“…This forces to be cautious in relation to the part of the experimental data [8], where the measured fraction of the droplet was noticeably more than 50%. However, qualitative changes in the structure of the two-phase flow at a pressure above ~ 0.5 pcr were noted in the studies [10,11]. For this article, the most noticeable is change of the profile of a liquid mass velocity from a M-shape at p≤10 MPa to a convex one at higher pressures (up to 13.7 MPa).…”
