On the effects of centrifugal forces in air-water two-phase flow regime transitions of an adiabatic helical geometry

Creator:

Young, Eric P.

Abstract:

Two-phase flow in helical conduits is important in many industries where reaction between components, heat transfer, and mass transport are utilized as processes. The helical design is chosen for the effects of secondary flow patterns that reduce axial dispersion, increased heat transfer, and also their compact design. The first is...
