Obtaining a Universal Generalization on the Hydraulic Resistance of a High-Intensity Device for the Interaction of a Gas-Liquid Flow Using a Controlled Vortex

This paper presents the results of a study of a promising design for the intensive interaction of gas and liquid. The hydraulic resistance of a single-phase gas and two-phase gas-liquid vortex flow, as well as the proportion of the liquid phase in the apparatus, is studied. The reasons for the existence of two different structures of a vortex gas-liquid flow in the apparatus are analyzed. Statistical models of the influence of the gas swirl intensity and phase flow rates on the hydraulic resistance and the proportion of the liquid phase in the apparatus for two existing vortex flow modes are presented. The possibility of using statistical models obtained for individual flow modes to search for generalized dependencies extending to both flow modes of a vortex gas-liquid flow is shown.
