Abstract:This study aims at developing an improved numerical simulation of the film boiling regime phenomenon to understand and visualize the growth of vapor bubble at a heated surface during low and high superheats. The simulation of the bubble dynamics including the bubble growth, departure, coalescence, rising, and frequency of detachment under different wall superheats is numerically investigated. The continuity, momentum, and energy equations are solved for the two immiscible fluids phases using the finite volume … Show more
