Abstract
Abstracts are not currently available in GtR for all funded research. This is normally because the abstract was not required at the time of proposal submission, but may be because it included sensitive information such as personal details.

| Description | We have imaged the distribution of gas bubbles and liquid as the flow through a pie together. Further we have obtained how the velocity of the gas and liquid change across the pipe. This has been done at a range of different flowrates to help understand how gas and liquid flows interact in vertical and horizontal pipe. |
