interPhaseChangeFoam
I am trying to simulate jet in a different density medium, which gets vaporized once it reaches the vaporization temperature/pressure. Is interPhaseChangeFoam correct solver to deal with this kind of problem???
Please help |
why not, it seems possible
|
Thanks Nima, I was wondering whether interMixingFoam will be suitable or not as it deal with three fluids,two of which are miscible. But I am not sure whether it will take into account the vaporization of the jet in a different density medium.DO you have any idea??
|
as much as i know, it does not consider vaporization
|
But do you think, that interPhaseChangeFoam takes into account three fluids (water, air and vapour)?? and If i incorporate temperature field into interMixingFoam, can it solve the problem or can I add another phase in interPhaseChange Foam. I think the later one is not possible but do you think incorporating temperature will solve the problem for the former (interMixing Foam)??

Vishal,
If you have a look in interPhaseChangeFoam, you see phaseChangeTwoPhaseMixtures, so it's only two phases. If you want a third phase you can add it yourself. I did it some time ago to take into account the non-condensable gas in a cavitating flow, in the end it was not very successful due to the incompressible methodology. Cheers, |
Which one is easier? 1) adding phase change and temperature model to interMixingFoam or 2) adding a third phase to interPhaseChange Foam???
Any idea, any one ...please reply!! |
hello,
You should not add a third phase in interPhaseChange to take into account vapour, because this is a VOF solver (thus non miscible phase). => you will have non miscible vapor and air. but you may try to add a transport scalar to the 2nd phase (air) to take into account vapor. However your scalar should not diffuse inside water, so this will not be easy. For this, take a look at this: http://www.cfd-online.com/Forums/ope...tml#post397654 regards, olivier |
