Grid Generation Issues in the CFD Modelling of Two-Phase Flow in a Pipe

TL;DR: The grid generation issues found in the 3D simulation of two-phase flow in a pipe using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) are discussed in this paper, showing that there is a strong dependency of the flow behaviour on the mesh employed.

The monitoring of the two phase flow-annular flow type regime using microwave sensor technique

TL;DR: In this article, the authors report on the development of a novel non-intrusive sensor, which is based on electromagnetic waves cavity resonator, which determines and monitors the percentage volumes of each of the two phases (oil and gas) in the pipeline using the resonant frequencies shifts that occur within the resonator.

A new electrode-mesh tomograph for gas–liquid flows

TL;DR: In this article, an electrode-mesh tomograph for high-speed visualisation of transient gas fraction distributions in two-phase flows in pipes is presented, which is based on the measurement of the local instantaneous conductivity of the 2-phase mixture.
