The results of an experimental investigation of the hydraulic resistance of two types of intensifier arrays in an air--water dispersed-ring flow in a channel with a bundle consisting of seven rods are presented. It is shown that the arrays affect the distribution of the liquid films on the surface of the rods and the housing of the channel. Empirical dependences for calculating the local hydraulic resistance of the arrays and the flow rates of the liquid in the films in a channel with intensifiers are proposed based on the data obtained.
