Swirling two-phase flow is important inindustrial mixing and separation systems. In this work, the effect of liquid viscosity was investigated computationallyusing the Euler-Euler model where the liquid and the gas acted as the continuous and dispersed phases, respectively. CFD simulations were performed to model the gas-liquid flow inside a horizontal pipe with a static mixer element withliquid viscositiesof 1, 5, 10,and 50 cP.The axial gas fractionprofilesshow that the gas distributiondynamicis strongly affectedby the liquid viscosity,especially in the region downstream of the element. The calculatedresultsshowthat thehigher the viscosity, the shorter the gas core downstream of the element. Gas separation afterthe element occurs overa shorter distance withhigher liquid viscosity. Apossible explanation is that the swirling flow decaysfaster at higher liquid viscosities, andthe buoyancy force dominatesover the centrifugal force
