Abstract

Abstract Models are presented for determining flow regime transitions in two‐phase gas‐liquid flow. The mechanisms for transition are based on physical concepts and are fully predictive in that no flow regime transitions are used in their development. A generalized flow regime map based on this theory is presented.
