...Weiwei E.; Kevin Pope; Xili Duan In this paper, a new correlation is developed to predict liquid/liquid separation dynamics with a focus on a water/oil mixture. The correlation employs a force balance on the droplets to predict the rising velocity of the oil phase. The effect of droplet coalescence...

...A. K. Das; P. K. Das; J. R. Thome The two fluid model is used to simulate upward gas-liquid bubbly flow through a vertical conduit. Coalescence and breakup of bubbles have been accounted for by embedding the population balance technique in the two fluid model. The simulation enables one to track...
