1. An experimental test rig is used to examine two-phase flow regimes in horizontal pipelines. A particular experiment involved uses air and water at a temperature of 25°C, which flow through a horizontal glass tube with an internal diameter of 25.4 mm and a length of 40 m. Water is admitted at a controlled rate of 0.026 kgs-¹ at one end and air at a rate of 5 x 10-4 kgs-¹ in the same direction. The density of water is 1000 kgm 3, and the density of air is 1.2 kgm 3. Determine the mass flow rate, the mean density, gas void fraction, and the superficial velocities of the air and water. Answer: 0.02605 kgs-¹, 61.1 kgm-3, 0.94, 0.822 ms-¹, 0.051 ms-¹

4. An experimental test rig is used to examine two-phase flow regimes
in horizontal pipelines. A particular experiment involved uses air
and water at a temperature of 25°C, which flow through a horizontal
glass tube with an internal diameter of 25.4 mm and a length of 40 m.
Water is admitted at a controlled rate of 0.026 kgs-¹ at one end and air
at a rate of 5 x 104 kgs¹ in the same direction. The density of water
is 1000 kgm3, and the density of air is 1.2 kgm-³. Determine the mass
flow rate, the mean density, gas void fraction, and the superficial
velocities of the air and water. Answer: 0.02605 kgs-1, 61.1 kgm ³, 0.94,
0.822 ms-1, 0.051 ms-1
