Brief
The Griffith correlation [1] is an empirical correlation which defines:
- The boundary between the bubble and slug flow[2]
- The void fraction of gas in bubble flow - gas hold up Hg[2]
Math & Physics
The bubble flow exist when:
, with the limit 
[2]
The gas holdup:
Discussion
Griffith correlation adds a hook to the originally straight Hagedorn and Brown VLP curve.
