Simplification of Ensemble Averaged Two-Phase Flow with Heat and Mass Transfer Equations for Boiling in a Channel

Abstract

Generation of vapor and predication of its behavior is an important problem in many industries. In this study, the three dimensional governing equations for turbulence two-phase flow are derived using ensemble averaging two fluid model. The governing equations are simplified by a heuristic approach based on boiling data, and the equations are used to obtain the parameters for each phase along the channel. A computer program is written for the simplified one-dimensional equations, and the results are compared with experimental data.
