Counter-Current Gas-Liquid Film Cross-Flow for the Staggered Tube Bundles in Closed Wet Cooling Towers

This work establishes a three-dimensional CFD model that is capable of describing the counter-current air-water flow across a staggered tube bundle in a bench-scale wet cooling tower (CWCT) by combining the VOF multiphase method and the SST k-ω turbulence model. One important feature of the proposed...
