CFD Modeling of Gas-Liquid Bubbly Flow in Horizontal Pipes: Influence of Bubble Coalescence and Breakup
Figure 4
Comparison of predicted and experimental data of Kocamustafaogullari and Wang [17] for superficial gas velocity of 0.50 m/s, superficial liquid velocity of 5.1 m/s, and volume fraction of 0.080; (a) gas volume fraction, (b) interfacial area concentration, (c) Sauter mean bubble diameter, and (d) axial liquid velocity.
