摘要
The two-phase liquid/gas slug flow regime phenomenon can be encountered over a range of gas and liquid flowrates. Monitoring of slugs and measurement of their characteristics, such as the gas void fraction, are necessary to minimize the disruption of downstream process facilities. This article presents experimental results correlating acoustic emission measurements with gas void fraction in a two-phase water/air flow regime. It is concluded that the gas void fraction can be determined by the measurement of acoustic emission, which hitherto has not been investigated.
