Development of two-phase flow downstream of a horizontal sudden expansion
Abstract
Experiments were performed to characterize the development of air–oil two-phase flow downstream of horizontal sudden expansions with area ratios of 0.0625 and 0.25. The tests were performed at oil and air superficial velocities in the range 0.02–0.756 and 0.136–3.75m/s. In addition to the axial variation of the pressure and area-averaged void fraction, time-averaged local profiles of the void fraction, mean liquid velocity and turbulence …
