Parents of two-phase flow and theory of "gas-lift"

Abstract

This paper gives a brief overview of types of two-phase flow. Subsequently, it deals with their mutual division and problems with accuracy boundaries among particular types. It also shows the case of water flow through a pipe with external heating and the gradual origination of all kinds of flow. We have met it in solution of safety condition of various stages in pressurized and boiling water reactors. In the MSR there is a problem in the solution of gas-lift using helium as a gas and its secondary usage for clearing of the fuel mixture from gaseous fission products. Theory of gas-lift is described. © 2014 Owned by the authors, published by EDP Sciences.
