Rod Bundle

 

 

Provides a plot showing the flow regime map for a vertical upward two phase flow through a rod bundle based on the work by Venkateswararao et al. (1982)

Information regarding the axes follows.

 

y-axis

rho_G j_G = vapor density multiplied by superficial gas velocity where

j_G = G*x/rho_G = superficial gas velocity

 

x-axis

rho_L j_L = liquid density multiplied by superficial liquid velocity where

j_L = G*(1-x)/rho_L = superficial liquid velocity

 

 

where

G = total mass flux (m_dot/A)

x = quality
