Comparative Study between Gas-Liquid and Liquid-Liquid Flow through Small Diameter Pipe
Abstract
Dipankar Pal
In present study, the flow patterns of air – water and toluene – water have been investigated experimentally in vertical and horizontal milli channel. The flow regimes were investigated by a high speed video recorder in pipe with diameters of 2 mm. The comprehensive visualization of air - water, two - phase flow in a vertical and horizontal milli channel has been performed to realize the physics of such a two - phase flow. Different flow patterns of toluene – water flow were observed simultaneously in the milli channel at different values of toluene and water flow rates. Consequently, the flow pattern map was proposed for flow in the milli - channel, in terms of superficial velocities of liquid and gas phases.
