A History of Gas-Liquid Two-Phase

Flow Research and Related Technology (4th Report)

Abstract

Progress of two-phase flow research is divided into four stages. These periods are 1948-1959, 1960-1970, 1971-1979 and 1980-1989. In this, the fourth report, the development of research of flow configuration of slug flow and two-phase critical flow conducted in the second period are described. The initiation and development of researches of the fluctuation of static pressure and pressure drop in slug flow is introduced. Also, the development of theoretical analysis of the two-phase critical flow is discussed.
