Two-phase flow patterns
Abstract
A comprehensive description of two-phase flow, refered to reactor cooling applications, is presented. Parameters of two phase-pipe flow are described. Experimental determination of flow patterns and cocurrent flow in vertical and horizontal pipes are examined. The flow pattern in a rod bundle as well as flooding and flow reversal are discussed including experimental correlations and theoretical approaches.
