Velocities of extended bubbles in inclined tubes

Abstract The velocities of extended bubbles (slug flow bubbles) have been measured in inclined circular tubes. Eotvos numbers ranged from 4.9 to 490 and Morton numbers from 2.2 × 10 −11 to 1.5 × 10 4 . The Froude number for any angle of inclination was correlated as a function of angle and the values of the Froude numbers for the horizontal and vertical orientations.
