A numerical analysis of the characteristics of interfacial waves on the onset of flooding in an inclined pipe

TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of contact angle and liquid velocity on flooding in a 30° inclined pipe were studied with a two-dimensional computational fluid dynamic model, and an analytical forces model was proposed on the flooding waves, including gravity, the pressure of the gas core, pressure variations in the liquid film, wall shear force, interfacial shear forces and surface tension force.
