Two-phase flow analysis must further be extended to get liquid slug length, gas length and liquid slug velocity.
Unbalanced force due to Slug impact is equal to change in momentum with respect to time. It can be calculated by the formula :
F = dp/dt = rho. sq.V . A [(1- COS theta)/2]1/2
Where rho– Fluid Density
V – Slug Flow Velocity
A – C/S Area
theta– Bend Angle
