Current research has expanded on the existing database by conducting air–water experiments in a 0.125 m regular T-junction and a 0.125/0.076 m reduced T-junction. Inserts, cut to 30° and 45°, protruded from the side arm into the main pipe of the junction at different protrusion depths and their effect on the two-phase flow phase split at the junction measured. Depending on the approaching flow regime, inserts placed at the junction were seen to either enhance the partial phase separation occurring at the T-junction or promote a more equal flow split between the two downstream arms.
