Abstract
An experimental investigation has been conducted on flooding in the vertical gas-liquid countercurrent flow through multiple short paths. Experimental results show similar flooding characteristics as those in the single-path flow, but secondary behaviors also exist, unique to the multiple-path flow, due to path interaction. A modeling procedure has been developed to analyze the onset of flooding. The analysis shows that correlations of the Wallis and Kutateladze type may be interpreted as dynamic similarity conditions for the flooding phenomenon, although their detailed parametric dependences are quite complicated.
