Some Observations on the Structural Developments of Bubbly Flow : Channel Size Effect

  • Published : 1995.10.01

Abstract

The present study provides some experimental observations on the structural developments of bubbly flow and the void wave damping in vertical, circular channel with a large diameter, and discusses the channel size effect on them. It is observed that the developing mode of bubbly flow structures and its transition mechanism are influenced by the channel size as well as the bubble size, and that they are well revealed in the behavior of wave damping.
