The Measurement of Liquid Phase Velocity Profiles in Vertical Two-Phase Flow

  • Conference paper
Measuring Techniques in Gas-Liquid Two-Phase Flows

Abstract

A non-disturbing photochromic dye tracing flow visualisation technique has been applied to measure velocity profiles in two-phase flow in a 10 mm diameter pipe, using trichloroethylene and air as working fluids. Measurements are presented for vertical annular and slug flows.
