Claim:
1. A test bench for characterizing a flow of a two-phase fluid, the bench comprising: a fluid tank; and a first pump suitable for taking fluid from the tank and for feeding first and second lines that are connected in parallel; the first line being provided in succession, from upstream to downstream in a fluid flow direction, with: a first air injector which injects air into the fluid; a first sensor which provides information about a proportion of a vapor phase relative to a liquid phase of the fluid; and a second pump suitable for simulating a turbine engine fuel pump; the second line being provided in succession, from upstream to downstream in the flow direction of the fluid, with: a second air injector which injects air into the fluid, a second sensor which provides information about the proportion of the vapor phase relative to the liquid phase of the fluid; and a suction-generator member.
