Abstract
The paper presents local measurements of void fraction and liquid velocity in a steady-state air- water bubbly flow at atmospheric pressure. Use is made of a constant temperature anemometer and of a conical hot-film probe.
The signal is processed with a multi-channel analyzer. Void fraction and liquid velocities are determined from the amplitude histogram of the signal.
The integrated void fraction over a diameter is compared with the average void fraction along the same diameter obtained with a γ-ray absorption method.
The liquid volumetric flow-rate is calculated from the void fraction and liquid velocity profiles and compared with the indication given by a turbine flowmeter.
