How can I determine the parameters regarding boiling in a microchannel such as interfacial area concentration, lift, bubble diameter and critical Weber number?
A publication by Kurul and Podowski (1990) could be of help, as they modeled nucleate boiling and wall flux partitioning source terms.
You may use VOF model of ANSYS Fluent. VOF model will facilitate you to observe the volume fractions of water and vapor during the phenomenon. And of course, don't forget to add correct surface tension coefficient to model the phenomenon accurately.
Look for these Ansys Fluent 13.0 tutorials:
- Horizontal Film Boiling
- Modeling Nucleate Boiling Using ANSYS FLUENT
Dear freinds,
Thank you all!
I dont have access to the article proposed by Moises Romero.
could you please send it to me?
Thank you,
Kind regards,
Dadvand
hi abdolrahman dadvand ,
