Phase separation of dispersed mist and dispersed annular (rivulet or thin film) flow in a tee-II : Analysis. (English) Zbl 1134.76609

Summary: An experimental and analytical investigation of dispersed mist and dispersed annular (rivulet or thin film) flow phase separation in a tee was performed. The analysis portion consisted of developing physically based models and incorporating the models into a computer program that calculates liquid drop and liquid pathline trajectories for these two flow regimes. Macroscopic mass balances were then calculated and compared with data. In addition, a correlation for dispersed mist phase separation was developed from computer calculations and is presented.
