Critical Velocity

Critical Velocity is a theoretical threshold velocity in multiphase flow systems, defined as the minimum fluid velocity required to prevent the settling or accumulation of solid particles or secondary phases within a conduit, thereby ensuring continuous transport in applications such as hole cleaning, pipeline flow, and tunnel ventilation.
