Abstract

Knowledge of inverted annular flow hydrodynamics is essential for the proper analysis of low quality, film boiling transport phenomena. This thesis details an experimental study in which the stability, shape and disintegration/entrainment of the liquid jet-like core of inverted annular flow was investigated, utilizing an adiabatic simulation. This work was performed at Argonne National Laboratory, under the auspices of the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
