Numerical Investigation on Bubble Growth and Sliding Process of Subcooled Flow Boiling in Narrow Rectangular Channel

In order to investigate single bubble evolution, a boiling phase change model in subcooled flow boiling is proposed in this paper, and VOF model combined with phase change model is adopted to simulate the single bubble growth and movement. The effects of flow velocity, liquid subcooling, wall superh...
