Flow characteristics of superfluid helium through porous elements of thermomechanical pumps were experimentally studied with special emphasis on the critical heat input which bounds the ideal flow regime and the superfluid turbulent flow regime. The dependence of the critical heat input on the tempe
Experiments were conducted with saturated superfluid helium. Two-phase co-current stratified flow was circulated through a 40 mm inner diameter, 86 m long heated tube, with a slope of 1.4%. Mass flow rates and temperatures ranged between 1.5 and 6.3 g s-l, and 1.8 and 2 K, respectively. A full descr
This paper presents the physical basis of a one-dimensional two-fluid stratified flow model, adapted for adiabatic or diabatic superfluid helium flow. Closure relationships for wall shear stresses and inter-facial momentum transfer are used to predict the total pressure losses and the void fraction
