Two Phase Flow Modeling: Summary of Flow Regimes and Pressure Drop Correlations in Reduced and Partial Gravity

AUTHOR Administration (Nasa), National Aeronaut
PUBLISHER Independently Published (08/21/2020)
PRODUCT TYPE Paperback (Paperback)

Description
The purpose of this report is to provide a summary of state-of-the-art predictions for two-phase flows relevant to Advanced Life Support. We strive to pick out the most used and accepted models for pressure drop and flow regime predictions. The main focus is to identify gaps in predictive capabilities in partial gravity for Lunar and Martian applications. Following a summary of flow regimes and pressure drop correlations for terrestrial and zero gravity, we analyze the fully developed annular gas-liquid flow in a straight cylindrical tube. This flow is amenable to analytical closed form solutions for the flow field and heat transfer. These solutions, valid for partial gravity as well, may be used as baselines and guides to compare experimental measurements. The flow regimes likely to be encountered in the water recovery equipment currently under consideration for space applications are provided in an appendix. Balasubramaniam, R. and Rame, E. and Kizito, J. and Kassemi, M. Glenn Research Center NASA/CR-2006-214085, E-15422 NCC3-975; WBS 22-010-53-01
