A variety of two-phase flow models can be derived following few basic principles, which are here illustrated which no more generality than is essential. Among the models derived is one already widely used in applications, even though it is ill-posed in the sense of Hadamrd. Final assessment of such models remains a distant goal, but will clearly involve numerical solutions; several methods in current use are discussed with a guide to selecting the one appropriate to a particular problem.
