Features: Two-phase flow is a new discipline that has developed in recent decades, serving as the knowledge for scientists and engineers in fields such as power, chemical engineering, thermal energy, nuclear energy, refrigeration, and petroleum. This book is compiled based on relevant domestic and international materials as well as the author's research achievements. It systematically discusses topics in two-phase flow, including flow patterns and flow pattern maps, pressure drop in two-phase flow in pipes, fluid distribution, mixing, and separation in two-phase fluids, pressure drop in two-phase flow passing through throttling elements, the vortex characteristics of two-phase flow across single tubes and tube bundles, as well as pulsation and prevention in two-phase flow. In the field of boiling heat transfer, it addresses issues such as boiling heat transfer in pipes and heat transfer degradation. In terms of two-phase flow testing technology, it introduces some relatively advanced testing methods in recent years. This book can serve as a graduate textbook or an elective undergraduate textbook for the aforementioned disciplines, as well as a reference for scientists and engineers in these fields. Based on relevant domestic and international materials and combined with the author's research achievements, this book systematically discusses two-phase flow topics including flow patterns and flow pattern maps, pressure drop in two-phase flow in pipes, fluid distribution, mixing, and separation in two-phase fluids, as well as pressure drop in two-phase flow passing through throttling elements.
