Void fraction simulating stratified air-water flow in cylindrical tubes of different radii was measured using transmission and scattering of gamma rays. A simple experimental set-up using Cs-137 gamma-ray point source of 10 mu Ci and NaI(Tl) detector was used The void fractions determined from Compton-Compton scattering and transmission peaks were found in good agreement with the real void fractions. However, deviations were noticed between the results obtained from traditional Compton scattered gamma rays and real void fraction, It was shown that sensitivity of gamma ray scattering is better than the transmission measurements. The set-up used in the present work is simpler than those existing in literature and radiation safety and shielding requirements are minimized. (C) 2013 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved,
