A theoretical model is developed for predicting the maximum flow rate of a single component, two-phase mixture. It is based upon annular flow, uniform linear velocities of each phase, and equilibrium between liquid and vapor. Flow rate is maximized with respect to local slip ratio and static pressure for known stagnation conditions. Graphs are presented giving maximum steam/water flow rates for: local static pressures between 25 and 3,000 psia, with local qualities from 0.01 to 1.00; local stagnation pressures and enthalpies which cover the range of saturation states.

Dense, polycrystalline MgO was infiltrated with monticellite (CaMgSiO4) liquid to study the penetration of liquid along the grain boundaries of MgO. Grain growth was found to be restricted with increasing amounts of liquid. The inter-granular regions were generally found to be comprised of a two-phase mixture: crystalline monticellite and a glassy phase rich in the impurities present in the starting MgO material. MgO grains act as seeding agents for the crystallization of monticellite. The location and composition of the glassy phase with respect to the MgO grains emphasizes the role of intergranular liquid during the devitrification process in “snowplowing” impurities present in the matrix.

During the course of expansion of steam in turbines the fluid first supercools and then nucleates to become a two-phase mixture. The liquid phase consists of a large number of extremely small droplets which are difficult to generate except by nucleation. To reproduce turbine two-phase flow conditions requires a supply of supercooled vapour which can be achieved under blow-down conditions by the equipment employed. This paper is the third of a set describing an investigation into the performance of a cascade of rotor tip section profiles in wet steam and presents the results of the wake traverses.

In this paper, we use two-phase mixture model and the Realizable k-ε turbulence model to numerically simulate the advection secondary flow in a sedimentation tank. The PISO algorithm is used to decouple velocity and pressure. The comparisons between the measured and computed data are in good agreement, which indicates that the model can fully simulate the flow field in a sedimentation tank.
