A Verification of the Two-Fluid Model with InterfacialInertial Coupling

"The two-fluid model (TFM) has become a foundational tool in numerical codes used for engineering analyses of two-phase flows in energy systems. However, its completeness remains a topic of debate because improper modeling of interfacial inertial coupling can render the momentum conservation eq...
