Abstract
A numerical model of multiphase flow was developed to investigate the heat and mass transfer mechanisms in refueling process. The two-dimensional model takes into account the effects of surface ten...

Organic vapor is generated during gasoline evaporation in vehicle refueling process, which results in huge energy waste and environmental pollution
From the 70s of the last century, many organic vapor recovery technologies have been widely studied, and the results are very limited in the study of the characteristics of mass transfer in gasoline evaporation process which is the basis of reasonable design of organic vapor recovery equipments
Referring to the research method of gasoline evaporation process of gasoline engine in combustion field, the fuel tank was simplified to a two-dimensional rectangular structure in this article, isooctane was used as a substitute for petrol, gas–liquid two-phase flow was simulated by VOF model, and the interfacial evaporation was calculated through the two-layer film theory
Summary
Organic vapor is generated during gasoline evaporation in vehicle refueling process, which results in huge energy waste and environmental pollution. Keywords Gasoline evaporation, numerical simulation, refueling process, temperature distribution, concentration distribution
