What is it about?
Taylor bubble is characterised by a round nose followed by a cylindrical body and is often found during slug flow in many industrial applications. The present work aims to determine the shape of an axially symmetric Taylor bubble rising through a stagnant column of conductive liquid using a pair of parallel wire conductivity probes.

Why is it important?
Determination of void shape in multiphase flow allows a better understanding of the flow phenomena. Also, it helps to improve process efficiency, safety and overall operational success. Our work proposes a simple and cost-effective solution for the estimation of the geometry of the Taylor bubble without any calibration of the sensor.
