摘要
This paper presents the results of an experimental study of the influence of the liquid flow rate of external pulsations on the gas-liquid flow characteristics of periodic slug flow in a microchannel. The experimental data were obtained using high-speed visualization of the flow of an ethanol-nitrogen mixture in a T-junction microchannel with a 390 x 150 mu m rectangular cross section. A novelty of this work was the use of pulsations of the continuous liquid phase on the gas- liquid flow. The form of external pulsations was a sine wave with different frequencies (f =1 and 2 Hz) and amplitude values (A = 8%, 20%, and 40%). The results obtained showed that using high-amplitude and low-frequency external pulsations destroys periodic slug flow and changes the monodispersity of bubbles and liquid slugs. The statistical characteristics of the flow were obtained based on the frequency and amplitude of the pulsations.
