Abstract
In this paper, the growth of a vapour bubble in superheated water for two-phase turbulent flow is studied. The growth problem is formulated by mass and momentum equations under physical assumptions between two finite boundaries. The analytical solution is obtained in terms of the vapour bubble radius. The bubbly growth is affected by thermal diffusivity, superheating, and the Péclet number. The fact that the scale of the bubble is larger than the scale of the turbulence in the mixture surrounding the growing bubble is considered. The previous models of growth for laminar flow are obtained as a special cases of the present model for some values of the parameters a, b, n, and φ0, respectively.
