Abstract

A method developed earlier for modeling conjugate two-phase heat transfer in flashing flows was used to obtain a numerical solution for transient boiling flow in heated pipes or channels. Two criteria of applicability of the solution obtained were proposed and numerically tested using a more rigorous model, which accounts for the effects of heat conduction with heat generation in the wall and forced convective boiling. The solution obtained provides a simple and reliable alternative to more rigorous methods for modeling transient two-phase flow in heated channels when the material of the wall bounding the flow has a high thermal conductivity and the wall superheat is small.
