Abstract This study is devoted to the experimental investigation of two-phase water-nitrogen flow in the slit microchannel with a gap of 20 µm and a width of 10 mm. The technology of microchannel fabrication has been developed and described in detail. Experiments were conducted in adiabatic conditions. Using a modified schlieren system, four flow patterns have been observed and described: jet, bubble, churn, and annular. Flow pattern map was plotted according to obtained patterns. Moreover, a two-phase pressure drop was measured. Dependencies between two-phase pressure drop and superficial liquid and gas velocities have been investigated.
