Discussion Overview

The discussion centers around multiphase flow in pipes, specifically focusing on scenarios involving high Mach numbers. Participants are seeking references for both experimental and simulation studies relevant to this topic, particularly in the context of accident analysis and transient situations.

Discussion Character

  • Exploratory
  • Technical explanation
  • Debate/contested
  • Homework-related

Main Points Raised

  • One participant requests references for multiphase flow in pipes at high Mach numbers, indicating a need for both experimental and simulation resources.
  • Another participant questions the specific range of Mach numbers being considered and whether the focus is on steady-state applications or accident analysis.
  • There is mention of the need to consider choked flow conditions during pipe or vessel ruptures under high pressure, as this involves transient flow situations.
  • Some participants note the existence of many papers on transonic two-phase flow, although access may require subscriptions or payment.
  • A participant provides a link to a white paper on transonic flow produced by a private company.
  • One participant specifies that they are considering a Mach number range of 0.3 to 1+ and emphasizes the focus on accident analysis.

Areas of Agreement / Disagreement

Participants have not reached a consensus on specific references or methodologies, and multiple competing views regarding the focus of the analysis and the nature of the flow conditions remain present.

Contextual Notes

Limitations include the lack of clarity on specific Mach number ranges and the distinction between steady-state and transient conditions, as well as the dependency on access to academic papers.

Who May Find This Useful

Researchers and practitioners interested in multiphase flow dynamics, particularly in high-speed applications and accident scenarios, may find this discussion relevant.

Hello everyone
I am currently working on multiphase flow in pipe. Will you guys suggest any reference for multiphase flow in pipe with high Mach number (Experiment and Simulation)?
Thanks in Advance.

What range of Mach numbers is one considering? Is this state for steady-state application or accident analysis?

For a pipe or vessel rupture under high pressure, one must consider a chocked flow as liquid flashes to steam, but that is a transient situation.

There are many papers on transonic two phase flow, but they require subscription or paid access.

At least on private company has produced a white paper on transonic flow.

Thank you, Sir. Will you please send the links where I can subscribe and get such papers/articles?
 
The Mach number that I am considering is 0.3-1+. Also, it is more in terms of accident analysis. Please suggest the websites/links.
Thanks
