Abstract

In relation to the development of the interfacial area transport equation, axial developments of local void fraction, interfacial area concentration, and interfacial velocity of vertical upward bubbly flows in an annulus with the hydraulic equivalent diameter of 19.1 mm were measured by the double-sensor conductivity probe. A total of 20 data were acquired consisting of five void fractions, about 0.050, 0.10, 0.15, 0.20, and 0.25, and four superficial liquid velocities, 0.272, 0.516, 1.03, and 2.08 m/s. The obtained data will be used for the development of reliable constitutive relations, which reflect the true transfer mechanisms in subcooled boiling flow systems.
