The presence of slug flow in horizontal two-phase flow
  One of the flow regimes occurring in horizontal two-phase flows is characterized by periodic large waves “surging” along the tube. This flow, called “slug” flow, has been frequently observed in low and high pressure gas liquid systems, but it has been noticed that slugging is absent in certain liquid-liquid two-phase systems. A method is developed giving the necessary conditions for the presence of slug flow. This method quantitatively explains the observed absence of slugging in certain liquid-liquid flows.
