Pressure effects on the slug to churn transition
Experiments are described on the effect of pressure on the slug/churn flow pattern transition in vertical upwards gas-liquid flow. The experiments were conducted with air-water flow in a 32 mm, 12.6 m long tube and the flow regime transitions were determined using the impedance probe. It was shown that the slug/churn transition was well predicted by the model, though this model slightly over-predicted the effect of pressure.
