Data and observations obtained during the study of two-phase flow phenomena for refrigerants flowing in small bore copper and glass tubes have been examined for their significance to the cavitation. Visual and photographic observations have been made of the inception of vaporization and of the movement of the point of inception as operating conditions are varied. Liquid tension has been deduced as occurring in these tests. Liquid tension and cavitation index data are presented. The experimental method is recommended as a means for studying many aspects of the phenomenon of cavitation.

Heater drain systems in fossil and nuclear power plants have proven to be among the most complex systems to design due to the occurrence of two–phase flow phenomena. The overall performance of heater drain systems directly relates to proper sizing and design of the piping and control valves. Proper sizing is highly dependent upon accurate and conservative calculation of two-phase flow pressure losses. This paper outlines the various options of solution methods available to the engineer and details one possible method which is simple, yet adequate, and based on the homogeneous equilibrium model (HEM) for two phase flow for calculation of heater drain system performance. General comparisons are made to the more complex multi-fluid models, flow regime considerations, and non-equilibrium models.

Both vertical upward and horizontal gas-liquid two-phase flows in a flat capillary rectangular channel were studied to clarify the flow phenomena, the holdup and the frictional pressure drop. The dimension of the channel used was 9.9 mm × 1.1 mm. The orientations of the channel were with the wide side vertical and the wide side horizontal. The differences between the flow characteristics in such orientations were investigated. New correlations of holdup and frictional pressure drop for flat capillary channels are proposed, in which the effect of aspect ratio has been taken into consideration.

Boiling heat transfer and corresponding two-phase flow phenomena are of significant interest for the design of a compact evaporator. The present work investigates experimentally, using a high-speed digital CCD camera, the two-phase flow phenomena for boiling in a silicon-based, two parallel trapezoid microchannels, which were prepared by the combination of silicon bulk micro machining and Pyrex-silicon wafer bonding. Onset of nucleate boiling, bubbly flow, slug flow, and partial dry out slug flow are typically observed along the flow direction. The appearance of the partial dryout slug flow may degrade the nucleate boiling heat transfer in the microchannel. At a low flow rate, reversed vapor flow is observed. In such a flow pattern, liquid droplets are formed intermittently on the inner wall of top Pyrex glass due to vapor condensation. Moreover, the reversed vapor flow usually accompanies with large magnitude two-phase flow oscillations.
