Abstract
In the last decades, several studies have been devoted to the modeling of gas-liquid flow through the two-fluid model and have established phenomenological criteria for the flow pattern transition, in addition, several works have studied experimentally the flow-pattern transition at different conditions in recent years. Based on experimental databank available in the open literature the accuracy of a flow pattern transition model is tested, results show a good accuracy for air and water two-phase flow at ambient temperature and pressure.
