Abstract
Prediction of developing and transient characteristics of circumferential and axial film velocities in a horizontal annular two-phase flow is carried out with the FIDAS-3DT computer code developed in Japan that can provide three-field representation in subchannel flow using the full conservative equations and simple constitutive relations. The specifications are those from a reported air-water experiment in a 3.9m by 32mm diameter pipe. Steady, fully developed axial flow rates seem to be over-predicted compared to the experimental results. A corrective procedure is suggested which takes into account the radial variation in the axial velocity profile.
