The Haricon method works wel fr pipes dlameters of 200mm to 300mm, For pipe diameters of 400mm to 450mm, experiance showed thatthe Harison method underestimates the pressure drop, Experience suggest that for slugging flow the ‘averaged pressure drop om the Harson and Homogeneous methods should be used.
