본 논문에서는 $600{\times}600{\mu}m$ 사각 마이크로 채널에서의 기-액체 테일러(슬러그) 흐름의 특성을 실험을 통해 살펴보았다. 실험 유체로는 질소와 물을 사용하였으며, 액체 및 기체 겉보기 속도는 각각 0.01 ~ 3 m/s, 0.1 ~ 3 m/s 의 범위에서 테일러 흐름이 나타나는 구간에서만 데이터를 얻었다. 기포 길이, 액체 슬러그 길이, 기포 속도 그리고 기포 생성 주파수를 고속 카메라를 사용하여 이미지 분석을 통해 측정하였다. 제시된 측정값(기포 길이, 액체 슬러그 길이, 기포 속도)과 이전 문헌에서 제안된 경험적 모델의 비교결과 대부분 오차가 50% 이상으로 나타났다. 따라서 기포와 액체 슬러그 길이 그리고 기포 속도에 대한 개선된 모델을 제시하였고, ${\pm}20%$ 이내의 비교적 우수한 결과를 볼 수 있었다. 또한 기포 생성 주파수는 기포 길이, 액체슬러그 길이 그리고 기포 속도의 관계를 이용하여 ${\pm}20%$ 이내에서 예측가능함을 알 수 있었다.

In this study, a single Taylor bubble and a train of Taylor bubbles rising in a vertical tube were simulated numerically. A finite difference method was used to solve the mass and momentum equations for the liquid-gas region. The liquid-gas interface was captured by a level set function which is defined a signed distance from the interface. For a train of Taylor bubbles repeated periodically in space, the periodic conditions were imposed at the boundaries normal to the gravitational direction and the pressure boundary conditions were iteratively determined so that the computed flow rate should be equal to a given flow rate. Based on the numerical simulation, the calculated shape and rise velocity of a Taylor bubble were found to be in good agreement with the experimental data reported in the literature.

The characteristics of gas-liquid Taylor (Slug) flow in a square micro-channel of $600{\sim}600{{\mu}m}$ were investigated experimentally in this paper. The test fluids were nitrogen and water. The liquid and gas superficial velocities were 0.01~3 m/s and 0.1~3 m/s, respectively. Bubble and liquid slug length, bubble velocity, and frequency were measured by analyzing optical images using a high speed camera. Bubble length decreased with higher liquid flow rate, which increased dramatically with higher gas flow rate. However, slug length did not vary with changes in inlet liquid conditions. Additionally, bubble velocities and frequencies increased with higher liquid and gas flow rates. It was found that measured bubble lengths were in good agreement with the empirical models in the existing literature, but slug lengths were not.

본 논문에서는 $600{\times}600{\mu}m$ 사각 마이크로 채널에서 T자형 합류지점에서의 기체 및 액체의 주입방법이 기포 및 액체 슬러그의 생성에 미치는 영향을 실험을 통해 살펴보았다. 실험 유체로는 질소와 물을 사용하였으며, 액체 및 기체 겉보기 속도는 각각 0.05 - 1 m/s, 0.1 - 1 m/s 의 범위로 테일러 유동이 나타나는 구간에서 데이터를 얻었다. 기포 길이, 액체 슬러그 길이, 기포 속도 그리고 기포 생성 빈도를 고속 카메라를 사용하여 이미지 분석을 통해 측정하였다. 유사한 입구 겉보기 속도 조건에서, T-자형 합류지점의 main channel에 기체를 주입하는 방법(T_gas-liquid)이 액체를 주입하는 방법(T_liquid-gas)보다 기포와 액체 슬러그의 길이가 길었고 기포 생성 빈도는 낮았다. 한편, 두 주입방법에서 기포 속도는 유사하게 나타났다. T_liquid-gas 주입방법의 기존 예측 상관식은 T_gas-liquid 주입방법의 기포 길이, 기포 속도, 액체 슬러그 길이, 기포 생성 빈도 실험데이터를 각각 ~24 %, ~9 %, ~39 %, ~55 %로 예측하였다.

In order to visually analyze the flow characteristics, gas was injected into the liquid bath through nozzle installed at the center of bottom of the bath. When gas was injected into the liquid bath, several flow patterns were observed bubble-liquid plumb, the spout flow that occurred at the free surface, liquid circulation flow by bubble's behavior, etc. Various bubbles, from small bubbles to Taylor bubbles, consisted of the bubble-liquid plumb. In the pure liquid region, the large and small several vortices were formed and irregularly circulated. These irregular repetition and circulation play a important role of mixing in the bath. The vortices were developed in the upper and the side wall regions and the movement of flow in the low region was very small. It is known as 'dead zone'.

It is well known that an air bubble trapped in water emits light at its collapse robustly with a proper forcing amplitude of ultrasound. Instability mechanism which causes deviation from sphericity of bubble wall was investigated theoretically. The rapid change of the bubble wall velocity which is both dependent on the forcing amplitude, was found to be a major factor of instability of the interface. The Rayleigh-Taylor instability which occurs when rapid acceleration is directed from the lighter towards the heavier fluid is found to be not related to the instability of the sonoluminescing gas bubble. A good agreement between the calculation results and experimental data is found.

In order to investigate the characteristics of two-phase slug flow, an electromagnetic flowmeter with 240Hz triangular AC excitation was designed and manufactured. The signals and noise from the flowmeter were obtained, and analyzed in comparison with the observations with a high speed CCD camera. The uncertainty of the flowmeter under single-phase flow was $\pm$ 2.24% in real-time. For two-phase slug flow, electromagnetic flowmeter provided real-time simultaneous measurements of the mean film velocity around Taylor bubble and the relative location and the length of the bubble. Besides, it is an easier and cheaper method for measuring mean film velocity than others such as photochromic dye activation method or particle image velocimetry.
