| Summary: | A two-phase flow experiment was flown aboard the NASA KC-135 and kurtosis. Slug flows exhibited both positive and annular flows have unimodal distribution with a peak at high capacitance void fraction sensors and trapped liquid between collect void fraction data under the unique conditions of combination of probability density function and variance of distribution in the probability density function while flows. Annular flows have negative coefficients of skewness fluctuations for slug flows tended to be larger than annular microgravity. Void fraction measurements were made by two negative coefficients of skewness and kurtosis. The probability density function and moments of a distribution regime identification tool. slug flows exhibit both unimodal distribution and multi-modal the void fraction fluctuations was found to be the best flow two quick closing valves. A statistical method involving a uses as a possible flow regime identifier. Results show that void fractions. It was found that the variance of void were developed to analyze the void fraction fluctuations for zero gravity aircraft to test void fraction sensors and |
