Brief

The Griffith correlation [1] is an empirical correlation which defines:

  • The boundary between the bubble and slug flow
  • The void fraction of gas in bubble flow - gas hold up Hg

Math & Physics

The bubble flow exist when:

\frac{q_g}{q_g + q_L} < L_B [2]
L_B = 1.071 - 0.2218 \frac{(v_g+v_L)^2}{D}, with the limit L_B \geqslant 0.13 [2]

The gas holdup:

H_g = \frac{1}{2}\ \left ( 1 + \frac{v_g+v_L}{v_s} - \sqrt{ \left ( 1 + \frac{v_g+v_L}{v_s} \right )^2 - 4 \frac{v_g}{v_s}} \right ) [2]
