hello everyone,
I'm trying to simulate condensation model using ANSYS FLUENT. The problem domain is constant wall temperature (Tw) heat pipe and steam entering at saturation temperature(Ts). This condition (Ts>Tw), i had tried to model in Fluent but not getting exact results.
so can i use, the inbuilt condensation model in Fluent for condensation or using some UDF or some other options available.
please if anyone have experience in condensation modelling please try to help me out.
Thanks in advance
Hello,
Did you try to create first a thin layer of the liquid phase (very thin) on the wall of the heat pipe?
I think otherwise the liquid will never be created from the gas.
