ABSTRACT
The identification of flow pattern is a basic and important issue in multiphase systems. However, it is difficult to discern due to the complexity of two-phase flows. In this paper, ordinary Kriging(OK) is applied to reconstructed the two-phase flow patterns using some accurate data. Three typical flow patterns are preset to verify the effectiveness of the method and two quality assessments are used to verify it. Computational results demonstrate that two-phase flow patterns can be reconstructed successfully. The method is feasible for fluid measurement applications.
