Abstract
In this study, the transient three-dimensional numerical simulations based on the MARS (Multi-interface Advection and Reconstruction Solver) with the non-empirical boiling and condensation model have been conducted for isolated boiling bubble behaviour in a subcooled pool. The effects of the wettability on the heating surface for the subcooled bubble departure behaviour were investigated. The numerical results showed in very good agreement with the experimental results. Furthermore, resulting from the wall heat flux evaluation, it was found that the wall heat flux near the contact line at the bottom of the bubble just before the bubble departing from the heating surface increases with increases of the degree of subcooling.
