✦ Synopsis

Models for predicting flow-pattern transitions in steady gas-liquid flow in pipes are summarized and presented. These models incorporate the effect of fluid properties, pipe size and the angle of inclination in a unified way that is not restricted to a specific range of pipe inclinations. Transition mechanisms are presented for each individual boundary and a logical path for systematic determination of the flow patterns is suggested.

An improved model is proposed for the prediction of departure and lift-off diameters in saturated forced convection boiling. The model utilizes a force balance similar to that proposed by Klausner et al. (ht. J. Heat Mass Trunsfer 36,651-662 (1993)). One significant improvement is that the inclinati

This paper presents an improved flow pattern map for predicting the heat transfer coefficients during condensation of R-134a inside a smooth horizontal tube. Experimental tests were conducted over the low-mass flux range of 75-300 kg/m 2 s, at a nominal saturation temperature of 40 °C, and with the
