摘要
Experimental results obtained in the determination of gas holdup in a two and three-phase downflow concurrent column are presented. The holdup was measured using both electrical conductivity and pressure-based techniques, and was compared with that obtained from direct measurements (using the "isolating method"). Gas holdups in the range from approximately 20 to approximately 60% v/v were well predicted by both methods. In the case of conductivity, gas holdup was calculated using Maxwell's model (1892) and the conductivity measurements performed in the multi-phase (liquid-gas or liquid-solids-gas) system and the "continuous" phase (liquid or liquid-solids). In the case of pressure, the gas holdup was obtained from a pressure balance taking into account the dynamic component resulting from the de-acceleration of a liquid jet.
