The analysis of our experimental data provides a simple model for the prediction of bubble rise velocity in inclined rectangular channels. The effects of leveling and buoyancy, which are jointly acting on bubbles in inclined channels, are incorporated into the model through two principal parameters: the
limiting bubble velocities achieved at the horizontal and vertical channel placement. Considering the inertial regime of large Taylor bubbles, these limiting velocities are predictable with a sufficient accuracy.
