Abstract

AbstractA radiological method has been developed to study the local flow characteristics in two‐phase contacting equipment. The method presented permits the evaluation of both the vertical and horizontal components of the liquid holdup and flow distribution and can also be used to study the performance of a wide variety of two‐phase contacting apparatus. An external source of radiation is used, and hence neither phase is contaminated by the radioactive material.The application of this method is illustrated in the specific case of air‐water contact in a countercurrent packed column.
