Effects of Diameters on Countercurrent Flow Limitation at a Square Top End in Vertical Pipes

Table 3

Effects of parameters on CCFL at square top end comparing with conditions of the square top end and water level at midlevel for D = 30-100 mm (“Medium” is uncertainty range of about 5-10 % for , for “Large” different correlation is recommended, bold area; database used for (9)).
