| Abstract: | A theory is proposed which describes the transfer process of momentum and heat in a two-phase bubble flow in channels. The eddy diffusivity to express the turbulent structure of the liquid phase is subdivided into the two components, one for the inherent wall turbulence independent of bubble agitation and the other for the additional turbulence caused by bubbles. On the basis of the theory, the velocity profile and the frictional pressure gradient for a given flow can be predicted when its void fraction profile is known. Furthermore, when a uniform heat flux is added to the system, its temperature distribution and heat transfer coefficient can be determined. A method for the numerical calculation of these parameters is also presented. |
