Model Construction and Experiment Study of the Fuel Nucleus Boiling Process on Hot Surface

Abstract:

As for the nucleus boiling pattern of the fuel on hot surface, the nucleus boiling mechanism, evaporation process and gas-liquid balance condition have been analyzed. Based on the model of Euler multiphase flow, mathematics model of the nucleus boiling process has been constituted. Furthermore, the nucleus boiling process has been simulated by FLUENT. And then, the study provides the theoretic foundation for the forecast of the process of fuel evaporation on hot surface through the comparative analysis between the theoretic calculation conclusion and the experiment.
