Gas entrainment by liquid flowing downward into downcomer.

Visual Observation of Flow Regime Transition in Downward Vertical Gas-Liquid Flow Using Simple Mixer

Different flow patterns of downward gas-liquid two-phaseflow using simple mixer are studied in an experimental manner. An experimental setup is designed and fabricated to allow the visual observation of downward two-phase flow patterns and their transitions. The flow patterns are recorded by a 1200 frames per second high speed video camera. The quality of downward two-phase flow patterns photos...

Cavitation in a flowing liquid.

In this letter, I am going to propose that the cavitation threshold in a flowing liquid could be associated with the maximum tension that the fluid can sustain before undergoing cohesive fracture at a point. My criterion is not isotropic; I am thinking that a liquid will break if the tension in one direction exceeds a threshold, independent of the value of the other principal stresses. The othe...

Gas-liquid chromatography: the gas-density meter, a new apparatus for the detection of vaporus in flowing gas streams.

The separation of volatile substances by gasliquid chromatography (James & Martin, 1952; James, Martin & Smith, 1952; James, 1952; James & Martin, 1954; Ray, 1954a, b) requires that the substances be detected as they leave the chromatogram in the stream of gas that acts as the mobile phase of the system. A number of methods of detection of varying sensitivity have already been developed (James ...

Modeling Gas-Solids Entrainment into a Horizontal Gas Jet Submerged within a Fluidized Bed

Overall gas-liquid mass transfer from Taylor bubbles flowing upwards in a circular capillary

Overall liquid side volumetric mass transfer coefficient kLa was determined experimentally for cocurrent Taylor flow moving upwards in a glass tube of an internal diameter of 3mm. Experiments were performed for physical absorption of oxygen in 20% aqueous solution of ethanol. Shadowgraph technique was deployed for precise measurements of bubble lengths and velocities. Experimental values of vol...
