Momentum transfer in climbing-film flow in an annular duct was
investigated. Air and various liquids, with a wide range of viscosities
and surface tensions, were investigated. The two phases flowed co-currently
upward, the liquid climbing as a thin film on the inner wail
while the outer wall remained dry.

Momentum transfer in an annular duct with upward gas-Iiquid
flow was studied under the condition that the liquid flowed as a film
only on the inner core of the annulus, the outer wall remaining dry.
Previous workers have studied climbing and falling liquid
films in tubes or on vertical planes....
This paper describes a study of two-phase gas-liquid vertical
annular climbing film flow. Using a high speed Fastax movie camera,
motion was slowed sufficiently to facilitate detailed analysis of the
climbing film structure, based on single frame projections. The
dynamic characteristics of the liquid film could likewise be obtained,
though...
Drop size distributions produced by the turbulent pipe flow of
dispersions of immiscible liquids were measured photographically.
A mathematical model was developed which predicted both the shape
of the experimentally observed distributions and the experimentally
observed kinetics of the breakup process.
The mutually saturated water and organic phases were pumped...
A study of nucleate boiling of water, four alcohols and
three ethanol-water mixtures was conducted in a vertical
thermosiphon reboiler. The test section consisted of a 1/2-
inch diameter electrically heated stainless-steel rod
jacketed by a 15-inch long pyrex glass tube. Two different
inside diameters of the glass tube corresponding...
