Backlight imaging tomography is used to experimentally investigate interfacial structures of gas–liquid two-phase flow in circular tubes. The tomography method is based on the attenuation of visible light that causes the inside of the liquid phases to be colored with dye. Increasing the number of light projections provides accurate phase distributions to be reconstructed by a linear backward projection scheme. After the reconstruction performance is examined with numerical simulations for several test cases, the method is applied to slug flows that have complicated 3D interfaces from turbulence. Interfacial structures are compared between straight and helical tubes to determine the effect of centrifugal acceleration. The result demonstrates that centrifugal acceleration provides a liquid-clinging layer on the inner wall against gravity while a high-speed collision of liquid with the top wall happens in a straight tube.
