Christmas Light
’Twas the night before Christmas when all through the house
No electrons were flowing through even my mouse.
All devices were plugged by the chimney with care
With the hope that St. Nikola Tesla would share.

Application of computerized tomography (CT) in two-phase flows has been discussed in the existing literature. Development of a fast, but simple, algorithm for reconstructing the density p or the absorption coefficient µ is attempted. The algorithm, involving radial polynomials (RAP), has been tested using simulated data for radially symmetric bubbly and annular two-phase flows. The RAP algorithm can also be applied in nonsymmetric flow situations, provided the information required is the cross-sectionally averaged density. The results indicate RAP to be a fast and accurate method for CT reconstructions involving an air-water flow system.
