The major types of instabilities which can alter a given two-phase flow pattern or lead to the breakup of a liquid film are delineated, and their physical mechanisms are discussed.Existing stability criteria are correlated to these basic types, and their application and limitations with respect to actual problems are indicated. Basic areas requiring further study are outlined.
