An experimental study on gas-liquid two-phase countercurrent flow limitations of vertical pipes

Youfu Ma et al.

Summary: The gas-liquid two-phase countercurrent flow limitation (CCFL) in vertical pipes is a significant topic in various industries. This study conducted a visualization experiment to analyze the effects of pipe diameter and length on the flow behavior of CCFL in vertical pipes. Existing CCFL models were examined but none of them were capable of correlating the effects of pipe diameter and length satisfactorily. A novel CCFL correlation model was proposed based on fluid mechanics analysis, which provides accurate predictions for the CCFL in vertical pipes with varying structural parameters, thereby ensuring safe and efficient operation in nuclear power generation, natural gas extraction, and chemical industries.

Hydraulic jump induced flooding and slugging in stratified gas-liquid flow - An experimental appraisal

Mrinmoy Dhar et al.

Summary: This paper presents an experimental approach to investigate the role of planar hydraulic jump in termination of stratified gas-liquid flow in a narrow rectangular conduit. The study found that when the Froude number of the incoming liquid is greater than unity, stratified flow is terminated via the formation of a natural planar jump. The results show that undular jump results in slugging during co-current flow, while oscillatory jump induces flooding in countercurrent flow. The experimental results also confirm the correlation between the superficial gas and liquid velocities and the proposed criteria.

Statistical characterization of liquid film fluctuations during gas-liquid two-phase counter-current flow in a 1/30 scaled-down test facility of a pressurized water reactor (PWR) hot leg

Achilleus Hermawan Astyanto et al.

Summary: This study investigates the statistical characteristics of liquid film thickness fluctuations using resistive-conductance probe signals, with a focus on time-domain, frequency-domain, and time-frequency domain analyses. The results reveal different parameters related to liquid film behaviors and provide insights into the dominant frequencies and chaotic levels of the signal.

A new correlation for CCFL at full scale PWR excluding the Hutze effect in UPTF data

Suleiman Al Issa

Summary: The presence of Hutze, a secondary ECC injection pipe within the hot leg pipe of a Konvoi-type PWR, was found to have a significant impact on the characteristics of CCFL, leading to lower limits of liquid flooding compared to cases without Hutze. Furthermore, experimental results indicated that the wear inside the Hutze pipe did not align with Ohnuki's correction of CCFL characteristics from 1988.

Effects of fluid properties on interfacial and wall friction factors under counter-current flow limitation in a vertical pipe with sharp-edged lower end

Raito Goda et al.

Summary: A study investigated the effect of liquid viscosity on gas-liquid counter current flow in a vertical pipe, proposing correlations for interfacial and wall friction factors. Experimental results showed flow classified into two regimes, with interfacial friction factor dependent on inertial and buoyant forces balance. Wall friction factor correlated with liquid Froude number, Reynolds number and dimensionless pipe diameter within specific ranges.

Numerical investigation of gas-liquid two-phase flow in horizontal pipe with orifice plate

Yu Zhang et al.

Summary: Gas-liquid two-phase flow in a pipeline with orifice plate results in complex flow behaviors, where the liquid volume ratio affects the jet speed and shape, reflected by the stability of the jet measured through a velocity ratio. The typical broadband excitation induced by the gas-liquid two-phase flow with orifice plate is observed.
