  • The boundary between the bubble and slug flow[1]

Math & Physics

Following the law of conservation of energy the basic steady state flow equation is:

 144 \frac{\Delta p}{\Delta h} = [H_g \rho_g + (1-H_g) \rho_L] + \frac{f q_L^2 M^2}{2.9652 \times 10^{11} D^5 \bar \rho_m} + \bar \rho_m \frac{\Delta{(\frac{v_m^2}{2g_c}})}{\Delta h}[1]
