Abstract
This book is intended to be a basic reference on the thermo-fluid dynamic theory of two-phase flow. The subject of two or multiphase flow has become increasingly important in a wide variety of engineering systems for their optimum design and safe operations. It is, however, by no means limited to today’s modern industrial technology, and multiphase flow phenomena can be observed in a number of biological systems and natural phenomena which require better understandings. Some of the important applications are listed below.
