- •
Advanced instrumentation for slug flow measurement, namely ECT, under laboratory conditions, is used on a horizontal pipe
- •
In this study, oil with viscosity five times higher than water is used, as it is more relevant to industry
- •
Comparison with void fraction in the liquid slug and slug frequency data available in literature shows similar trends.
- •
Use of plots of average slug frequency against axial distance, probability density function (PDF) of void fraction and comparison of slug front and slug tail to establish flow development.
