✦ Synopsis
Experimental data for gas holdup in liquid slogs are reported for two different pipe sizes (2.58 cm and 5.12 cm I.D.). A simple empirical correlation is developed and is shown to be a significant improvement over the only other published correlation proposed by Hubbard (1965). The results of this investigation are important for the development of a mechanistic model for the prediction of pressure drop and holdup for slog flow in pipes.

## Abstract The distribution of gas and liquid in a gas–liquid two‐phase slug flow was measured using semi‐supermultiple point‐electrode probes. Based on the measurements, the wake zone behind a gas slug and the low void‐fraction zone in a liquid slug were defined, and the void fractions of the two
THE ANALYSIS of slip phenomena in gas-liquid flow has overlooked a possible cause of slip which can play a role in both vertical and horizontal bubble flow and in horizontal slug flow. It is well known, since the work of NICKLIN, WILKES and DAVIDSON [l], that in a vertical tube, the relative veloci
