Excerpt from Stability of Two-Phase Annular Flow in a Vertical Pipe

Because of its importance in many engineering applications fluid transport, heat exchangers), two-phase flow in tubes and orifices has received a great deal of attention in the last decade. But because the flow is very complex, even in straight vertical pipes, most of the effort has been devoted to accumulating a large quantity of experimental information, and to attempting to correlate data in particular cases with theories based on empirical relations. Furthermore, most of the work deals with the apparently simple (though important) case of annular flow without heat transfer or phase exchange; yet the results to date for this case are theoretically unsatisfactory and of modest practical utility. It is not the aim of this paper to correct this situation, but merely to apply the theory of hydrodynamic stability to this simple case in a more general way than has been used heretofore in this area. The stability theory has a record of significant (though not uniform) success.
