Summary

A two-dimensional two-phase non-equilibrium model is presented to predict the void fraction distribution, flow and temperature fields for turbulent subcooled flow boiling at elevated pressures in heated vertical ducts (pipes and channels). The effects of inlet subcooling, exit pressure and wall heat flux on the flow boiling behaviour were predicted. The predicted radially averaged void fractions are compared with the experimental results available in the literature as well as the radial temperature distributions and void fraction profiles.
