Boiling calculations with an energy model for the vapour

(1/1)

Hi,

If either the Thermal Energy model or the Total Energy model is used for the vapour in a calculation using the RPI boiling model, then temperatures of the vapour phase are incorrect, being potentially either unphysically low or occasionally unphysically high.

Help!

william:
This may be due to an energy source term being included twice. The problem can be ameliorated by setting the Nusselt number on the zero resistance side to a high value. It is however better to set the vapour to be isothermal.

Thanks!
