In this paper the frictional pressure drop, void fraction and flow pattern of an air-water two-phase flow in helically coiled tubes are presented. The coils are constructed of 9.92 mm I.D. copper tube and the ratios of inside diameter to coil diameter are 1/11 and 1/22.7, and the lengths are 4 m and 4.5 m respectively. The experiments were conducted in the range of superficial water velocity wlo: 0.35∼1.16 m/sec and superficial air velocity wgo: 0∼5 m/sec. The frictional pressure drop of the two-phase flow in these coils is 1.1 to 1.5 times as much as that in a straight tube in the range of the experiment. Three types of empirical equations for the frictional pressure drop are proposed, and also the experimental data are correlated by a modified Lockhart-Martinelli method. The values of void fraction in the coils are approximately equal to those in a straight tube for the same water and air flow rates.
