輻射相關應用的使用現今已經非常地廣泛；像是醫療檢查和治療、食品工業或者更為複雜的高科技應用都可以發現輻射應用為人類文明所帶來的貢獻。本論文是以中子照相的方式觀察在金屬管內垂直向上和水平和的雙向流特性。清華大學擁有穩定且高品質的熱中子源(清華大學水池式反應器THOR)能夠支援本實驗中子照相需要。

中子照相是利用中子和物質作用的特性，和X光不同，幾乎所有中子和金屬的作用截面都低於X光；所以可以輕易地穿過金屬管，但卻容易和水起反應而被水所阻擋；本論文就是透過中子和物質作用的這種特性來觀察金屬管內的雙向流情況進而計算空泡分率。

由於，中子照相的成像性質很適合用來估計空泡分率、氣泡上升速率的分析；所以本論文著重在中子照相的影像處理和空泡分率的計算結果與比較。

The applications of radiation have been quite extensive recently. Such as medical check-ups,therapies, the food industry and even more complicated technological applications can justify the contributions to human civilization which was brought by radiation. The paper observes the bidirectional property which is vertical and horizontal in the metal pipe by neutron radiography. National Tsing Hua University is equipped with stable and high quality thermal neutron(THOR) which can support the need of neutron radiography in this experiment.

Neutron radiography utilizes the attribution of the interaction between neutrons and other materials. Compared to X-ray,almost neutrons interact cross section with metal is low than X-ray; therefore, they can easily pass through the metal pipe. Neutrons, however, easily interact with water and the are blocked by water. The paper calculates the void fraction by observing the bidirectional property in the metal pipe that results from the different interactions between different neutrons and materials.

Since the imaging Properties is very suitable to estimate and analyze void fraction、bubble rising velocity. That is, the paper put emphasis on neutron radiography and the comparison of void fraction.
