Modeling Churn and Annular Flow Regimes in Vertical and Near-Vertical Pipes with Small and Large Diameters

This thesis presents an improved model for gas-liquid two-phase flow in churn and annular flow regimes for small- and large-diameter in vertical and near-vertical pipes. This new model assumes that a net liquid film moves upward along the pipe wall and gas phase moves upward, occupying the majority...
