Counter Current

Experimental work about counter current two-phase flow of air and gas in nearly horizontal pipe has been performed. The work was performed in a 1.1 m long circular transparent acrylic pipe with 50 mm inner diameter, in two inclination angle settings (20° and 10° from horizontal). The smooth liquid and air inlet was used. Porous liquid inlet and a nozzle connected with calm section were used as liquid and gas inlet. The effect of liquid properties is examined by using five different working fluids (Water, two different concentration of butanol and glycerin aqua solutions). As for results. (1) CCFL causes a drastic change in the delivered liquid to the lower plenum. (2) The effect of inclination angle is significantly observed. The flooding gas superficial velocity decreases with inclination angle. (3) The liquid viscosity affects the flooding phenomena.

Local Flow

Two-phase flow widely exists in many industries. Understanding local characteristics of two-phase flow under different flow conditions in piping systems is important to design and optimize the industrial process for higher productivity and lower cost. Air–water two-phase flow experiments were conducted with a 16×16 conductivity wire-mesh sensor (WMS) in a horizontal pipe of a multiphase flow facility. The cross-sectional void fraction time series was analysed by the probability density function (PDF), which described the void fraction fluctuation at different flow conditions. The changes and causes of PDFs during a flow regime transition were analysed. The local structure and flow behaviour were characterized by the local flow spectrum energy analysis and the local void fraction distribution (horizontal, vertical and radial direction) analysis. Finally, three-dimensional transient flow fluctuation energy evolution and characteristic scale distribution based on wavelet analysis of air–water two-phase flow were presented, which revealed the structural features of each phase in two-phase flow.
