An analytical film drainage model and breakup criterion for Taylor bubbles in slug flow in inclined round pipes
The velocity of Taylor bubbles in inclined pipes is reduced if a lubricating liquid film between the bubble and the pipe wall is not present. An analytical model predicting the gravity-driven drainage of the lubricating film is presented in this article. The model is then used to establish a criteri...
