Abstract: The emerging energy efficient technology in the field of high viscous oil transportation is water-lubricated transport of heavy oil, known as core annular flow or CAF. This paper provides a brief review of the past studies on oil-water core annular flows--including studies on hydrodynamics as well as stability of flow.
