Experimental Set Up of Optical Tomography Probe and Visualization of Characteristics of a Taylor Bubble
Abstract: Abstract Conventional methods for the detection of bubbles uses probes which physically protrude into the flow field and thus may affect the flow dynamics, thereby tethering the formation, development and flow of bubbles. In thermal power plant, it is rather difficult to physically see which type of two phase flow is happening in the pipe. In such a case, an optical tomography sees its application. Depending upon the type of …
