Journal of engineering physics Aims and scope

Abstract

The experimental results obtained point to the noticeable effect of the liquid phase viscosity on the actual gas content and the existence of the laminated structure of the two-phase flow in the slightly inclined tubes. The Froude number for the nonramming liquid flow velocity is used to correlate the experimental data on different viscosities.
