摘要
Experimental investigations to establish the effect of flow orientations on gas–liquid two-phase flow patterns in minichannel is reported. Experimental test setup involves entry of air and water into the main channel through Y-junction inlet. Flow patterns are visualized for horizontal (0°), vertical (90°) upward, downward and angular (±30°, ±45°, ±60°) orientations of the channel. The visualized images are utilized for establishing flow pattern maps for all the orientations. A comparative analysis of flow patterns for all the orientations reveal the influence of gravity in the surface tension dominating regimes of the flow.
