β¦ Synopsis
The pressure drop along a slug unit is usually attributed to the sum of the frictional and gravitational losses along the liquid slug and to the acceleration of the slow moving liquid in the film to the liquid velocity in the liquid slug. In this work it is shown that some terms associated with the pressure calculations have been overlooked. These terms are essential for consistent calculation of the overall pressure drop independent of the choice of a control volume over which the pressure drop is computed.

Experimental results related to the pressure drop in steady and fully developed gas-liquid-solid three-phase slug flows in vertical pipes are presented. The experiment was carried out in pipes of 20.9, 30.6, and 50.8 mm I.D. and with solid particles of 2.57 mm mean diameter. Air and water were used
The purpose of this research is to develop an analytical model for a pressure drop per unit pipe length due to the turbulence modulations of a carrier phase which results from the presence of a dispersed phase in various types of diluted two-phase flows. The wake behind a particle, a particle size,
