Abstract: A simple two-fluid formulation is used to investigate compressibility effects and Mach number scaling for equilibrium, evaporating two-phase flow. The definition of the local two-phase Mach number ...

Abstract: Detailed heat/mass transfer distributions are presented inside a two-pass rotating ribbed coolant channel for two profiled-rib configurations. Several profiled-rib configurations have been studied ...

Abstract: The effects of ribs with different cross-stream profiles are investigated through detailed, surface mass (heat) transfer distributions along four active walls of a square duct containing a sharp ...

Abstract: Measurements of pressure drop, temperture, and average void fraction are presented for adiabatic, vertical-upwards, two-phase flow of Refrigerant 114 in a pipe. An experimental method has been ...

Abstract: The paper presents an experimental study of heat/mass transfer coefficient in 1:4 rectangular channel with smooth or ribbed walls for Reynolds number in the range of 5000–40,000 and rotation ...

Abstract: An instrument for the measurement of wall shear stress in two-phase flows is described. The device, termed a Laser Interferometer Skin Friction (LISF) meter, determines the wall shear by optically ...

Abstract: Results from experiments conducted in downward liquid-gas flows in inclined, eccentric annular pipes, with water and air as the working fluids, are presented. The gas was injected in the middle ...

Abstract: The effect of vortex generators on the mass (heat) transfer from the ribbed passage of a two-pass turbine blade coolant channel is investigated with the intent of optimizing the vortex generator ...

Abstract: Results from experiments conducted in downward liquid-gas flows in inclined, eccentric annular pipes, with water-air and water-polymer-air mixtures as the working fluids, are presented. The gas ...
