Numerical simulation of supersonic condensation flows using Eulerian-Lagrangian and Eulerian wall film models

As a clean and energy-saving natural gas purification and separation device, the supersonic separator's internal gas-liquid separation mechanism needs to be explored. However, the complex three-field (gas, droplet, liquid film) two-phase (gas, liquid) supersonic condensation flow challenges the numerical modeling. Most studies are limited to tracking the gas phase and droplets and ignore the effects of liquid film and phase change on droplets and water vapor removal. In the present study, we established a novel Eulerian-Lagrangian method coupled with the Eulerian wall film model to study the three-field behaviors and phase change for the enhancement of separation efficiency in the supersonic separator. The accuracy of the proposed model was validated by three experiments. The gas, droplet, and liquid film behaviors and three-field heat and mass transfers in the supersonic separator are studied using the proposed three-field two-phase flow model. Then, the sensitivity analysis was carried out, which showed the inlet mass flow rate qp,in of the heterogeneous droplets determines the maximum film thickness. For qp, in = 0.001 kg/s, this value is about 85.2 μm. The result also showed a significant improvement in separation efficiency with a proper inlet droplet diameter dp,in, qp,in, and gas pressure pin. For dp,in, qp,in, and pin are selected as 2.2 μm, 0.0015 kg/s, and 3 atm, better separation efficiency can be obtained with droplet removal rate, water vapor removal rate, and dew point depression being optimized to 100%, 57.4%, and 29.1% respectively.

Thermal performance of double-layer porous-microchannel with phase change slurry

Combining porous media paved on sidewall and microencapsulated phase change material (MPCM) suspension as coolant is presented in double-layered microchannel heat sink (MCHS), in which more surface area of porous copper matrix with high thermal conductivity as well as greater temperature difference between the heating wall and working fluid during phase transition of MPCM will enhance heat transfer. The Forchheimer-Brinkman-Darcy model together with energy equation in local thermal equilibrium are employed to deal with fluid flow and heat transfer in porous ribs, and the equivalent heat capacity method is used to describe the phase change process of microcapsules under laminar flow. The influences of coolants, heat sink designs (including the thickness, height, porosity and pore size of porous medium as well as channel number) and working conditions (involving inlet velocity, heat flux and suspension concentration) on thermal and hydraulic characteristics are numerically investigated. The performance evaluation factor (PEF) is introduced to evaluate the comprehensive thermal–hydraulic performance of double-layered MCHS, and the effective performance evaluation factor (PEFeff) is used to compare the overall performance of porous-wall MCHS between conventional arrangements, different channel aspect ratio and channel height ratio configurations. The thickness and height of porous media paved on sidewall should be adjusted reasonably, especially for the arrangement of non-equal porous media, to obtain better overall performance. Different from the variable porosity configuration, the double-layered MCHS cannot rely on losing part of flow performance to obtain better thermal performance in smaller pore size mode, so a larger pore size can be selected to obtain better thermal–hydraulic performance according to actual working conditions. The PEF at larger flow velocity decreases due to higher pressure drop exceeding the benefit of more convection on heat transfer enhancement, in which case the phase change effect in porous-wall mode with MPCM suspension as coolant is suppressed and higher viscosity amplifies the effect of frictional resistance, resulting in a greater drop ratio of PEF than water. The greater PEF in porous-wall MCHS with suspension concentration increasing from 3% to 20% arises than that in non-porous mode, due to the larger surface area of copper matrix with high thermal conductivity and more MPCM particles available for phase transition. The larger aspect ratio configuration can achieve greater PEFeff rise and better overall performance by optimizing fluid velocity in the current mode due to greater thermal resistance drop and less pressure drop rise at lower flow rates, but the variable height ratio structure makes the comprehensive performance of porous-wall MCHS inferior to conventional arrangement due to larger pressure drop rise outweighing the benefits of heat transfer enhancement at the same total volume flux.

Concomitant Thermochromic and Phase-Change Effect in a Switchable Spin Crossover Material for Efficient Passive Control of Day and Night Temperature Fluctuations.

The increasing environmental protection demand has prompted the development of passive thermal regulation systems that reduce temperature fluctuations in buildings. Here, it is demonstrated that the heat generated by the sun can trigger a spin crossover (SCO) in a molecule‐base material, resulting in a concomitant color variation (from pink to white) and a phase transition. This leads to a cooling effect with respect to other thermochromic materials. In addition, when the material is cooled, a dampening of the temperature decrease is produced. Therefore, these materials can potentially be implemented for passive temperature control in buildings. Furthermore, SCO materials are remarkably stable upon cycling and highly versatile, which allows for the design of compounds with properties tailored for the desired climatic conditions and comfortable temperature.

An enthalpy-based cascaded lattice Boltzmann method for solid-liquid phase-change heat transfer

• The CLB method is extended to simulate solid-liquid phase-change problems. • The unphysical numerical diffusion can be effectively eliminated by the CLB method. • The CLB method can achieve better numerical stability due to the enhanced Galilean invariance. In this paper, a cascaded lattice Boltzmann (CLB) method for investigating solid-liquid phase-change heat transfer is developed. In the CLB method, the enthalpy methodology is adopted to capture the solid-liquid phase interface implicitly. Mesoscopically, the enthalpy is defined as the basic evolution variable of the CLB equation of the temperature field so as to consider the phase-change effect in simulations without iteration procedure, and to achieve this purpose, the cascaded collision process is artfully designed by modifying the shifting procedure. Numerical results demonstrate that the enthalpy-based CLB method can serve as an accurate and reliable numerical tool for simulating solid-liquid phase-change heat transfer.

Dual phase dependent RLS filtering approach for baseline wander removal in ECG signal acquisition

Electrocardiogram (ECG) signals often get contaminated during physical activity, due to baseline disturbances. Removal of baseline interference also leads to variation in the timing of ECG waves. This paper proposes a dual phase dependent-recursive least square (DPD-RLS) adaptive filter that removes the baseline interference during ECG signal acquisition. This approach initially detects the upper envelope followed by the subtraction of the upper envelope with the original signal. The lower envelope is then detected from the resultant signal. Two phases are extracted from the upper envelope signal and the lower envelope signal that compensates for the phase change effects during the baseline wander removal process. A DPD-RLS adaptive filter structure is proposed that compensates for the phase changes near the P, Q, and T onset of the ECG signal. The evaluation was done using the clean ECG signals from the MIT-BIH arrhythmia dataset and baseline wander signals from MIT-BIH noise stress dataset signals using the metrics such as output signal to noise ratio (SNRo), correlation coefficient (γ), and percent root mean square difference (PRD) for the different input signal to noise ratios (SNRi). The proposed scheme provides an average output SNR, the correlation coefficient of 14.07dB and 0.980 respectively at SNRi=5dB when evaluated on different ECG records. Experimental results reveal that the proposed baseline wander removal scheme outperforms the traditional schemes.

An investigation and analysis of plasmonic modulators: a review

Abstract Plasmonics is an emerging and very advantageous technology which provides high speed and tiny size devices for fulfilling the demand of today’s high-speed world. SPPs are the information carrying elements in plasmonics, which are capable of breaking the diffraction limit. Plasmonics technology has shown its application in uncountable nanophotonic applications like switching, filtering, light modulation, sensing and in many more fields. Modulators are the key components of integrated photonic system. Various modulators which work on different effects are discussed in this study for providing a universal idea of modulators to researchers. Some useful plasmonic active materials are also discussed which are used in most of plasmonic modulators and other active devices. Previously, many researchers have worked on many kinds of modulators and switches, which operate on different kind of operating principles. For providing an overview about plasmonic modulators, their classification and their operation, we have discussed the state of art of some previously introduced modulators and switches which operates on electro-refractive effects and include electro-optic effect, Pockels effect, free charge carrier dispersion effect, phase change effect, elasto-optic effect, magneto-optic effect, and thermo-optic effect. Instead of different effects used in plasmonic switches and modulators different active materials like liquid crystals, graphene, vanadium di-oxide, chalcogenides, polymers, indium tin oxide, bismuth ferrite, barium titanate, and lithium niobate are also explained with their properties. Additionally, we also compared modulators based on different effects in terms of their design characteristics and performances.

Improvement of coalbed methane recovery rate by carbon dioxide phase transition blast fracturing

ABSTRACT Carbon dioxide phase transition blast (CPTB) fracturing is an effective way to recover coalbed methane. The key to this technology lies in reasonable parameters; however, there is no practical way to determine and optimize parameters. An orthogonal experimental design was used to create this study; multi-factor analysis of range and variance was combined to study the significance of multi-factor influence and the optimization of fundamental carbon dioxide phase change blasting parameters. The main influencing factors of cracking and antireflection effect of phase change blasting are studied from coal properties and blasting parameters. The significance levels of different elements were determined. The cracking scheme was designed according to the significant factors. The blasting damage model of the coal body was established by numerical simulation to compare and analyze the cracking effect of critical parameters. The optimal scheme of crucial carbon dioxide phase change blasting parameters is determined as the simultaneous initiation of a single carbon dioxide blasting tube with a charging amount of 2.0 kg and a hole spacing of 7 m. The field practice shows that the cracking effect of the optimized blasting using carbon dioxide phase change is significantly improved, the coal cracking area increases, and the gas extraction concentration and extraction purity increase by 3–5 times.

Global implicit solver for multiphase multicomponent flow in porous media with multiple gas components and general reactions

In order to study the efficiency of the various forms of trapping including mineral trapping scenarios for CO2 storage behavior in deep layers of porous media, highly nonlinear coupled diffusion-advection-reaction partial differential equations (PDEs) including kinetic and equilibrium reactions modeling the miscible multiphase multicomponent flow have to be solved. We apply the globally fully implicit PDE reduction method (PRM) developed 2007 by Kräutle and Knabner for one-phase flow, which was extended 2019 to the case of two-phase flow with a pure gas in the study of Brunner and Knabner. We extend the method to the case of an arbitrary number of gases in gaseous phase, because CO2 is not the only gas that threats the climate, and usually is accompanied by other climate killing gases. The application of the PRM leads to an equation system consisting of PDEs, ordinary differential equations, and algebraic equations. The Finite Element discretized / Finite Volume stabilized equations are separated into a local and a global system but nevertheless coupled by the resolution function and evaluated with the aid of a nested Newton solver, so our solver is fully global implicit. For the phase disappearance, we use persistent variables which lead to a semismooth formulation that is solved with a semismooth Newton method. We present scenarios of the injection of a mixture of various gases into deep layers, we investigate phase change effects in the context of various gases, and study the mineral trapping effects of the storage technique. The technical framework also applies to other fields such as nuclear waste storage or oil recovery.

Long-wave instabilities of evaporating/condensing viscous film flowing down a wavy inclined wall: Interfacial phase change effect of uniform layers

The interfacial phase change effect on a thin film flowing down an undulated wall has been investigated in the present study. The study is performed for a general periodic undulated bottom of moderate steepness that is long compared to the film thickness, followed by a case study over the sinusoidal bottom. The long-wave instabilities of the ununiform film are used by deriving a nonlinear evolution equation in the classical long-wave expansion method framework. The one-equation model can track the free surface evolution and involve the bottom undulation, viscosity, gravity, surface tension, and phase change (evaporation/condensation) effects. Linear stability analysis shows that the bottom steepness ζ has a dual role. In the downhill region, increasing ζ destabilizes, whereas increasing ζ stabilizes in the uphill region. Weakly nonlinear waves are studied using the method of multiple scales to obtain the complex Ginzburg–Landau equation. The results show that both supercritical and subcritical solutions are possible for evaporating and condensate film. Interestingly, while one subcritical region is visible for an evaporating film, two subcritical unstable regions are found for condensate film. The numerical solution of the free-surface equation demonstrates the finite-amplitude behavior that tends to dry out for an evaporating film. For condensate film, the thickness increases rapidly. The rupture dynamics highly depend on the initial perturbation, and the bottom steepness has a negligible effect on it. Kutateladze number has a significant impact on the stability characteristic of the film flow as it represents a sort of efficiency of phase change that occurs at the interface.

A lattice Boltzmann model for liquid-vapor-solid flow with thermal phase change

On the basis of phase-field theory, we develop a simple lattice Boltzmann (LB) model for liquid-vapor-solid flow with thermal phase change, which is able to deal with large fluid density contrasts. The conservative Allen-Cahn equation and Navier-Stokes equations are modified to take into account the phase change effects based on the Stefan boundary condition. Three distribution functions are used in the model, one of which is to track the interface among the fluids, one is employed for the fluid hydrodynamics, and the other one is utilized to solve the heat equation. The LB evolution equations are incorporated with proper source terms such that the modified interface tracking equation and hydrodynamic equations can be derived exactly. The proposed model for phase change is much simpler than the previous phase-field LB models. Combining with particle dynamics algorithms, the present model can further simulate liquid-vapor-solid systems with phase change. Several numerical tests, including the one-dimensional Stefan problem and droplet evaporation, have been performed to test the accuracy and stability of the present model, and the results obtained by this approach are in good agreement with the theory. Evaporation of a droplet wetting on a particle is simulated, it is found the fluid-solid interaction associated with the interface can be captured. Finally, as an application, the motion and growth of a rising vapor bubble with a particle through a superheated liquid is investigated.

Evaluation of global energy performance of building walls integrating PCM: Numerical study in semi-arid climate in Morocco

Passive latent heat thermal energy storage technologies with phase change materials (PCM) provide a potential solution to reduce energy demand and regulate the thermal comfort in occupied buildings. In this study, a numerical investigation is carried out on PCM-enhanced integrated building walls under the semi-arid climate to set the key parameters for the effective utilisation of PCM. A parametric study of PCM-composites walls is performed, including phase-change temperatures range, thicknesses, location, configurations, and mechanical ventilation effect on the performance of PCM integrated building walls. The results showed that the PCM-integrated walls improve indoor comfort and reduce cooling and heating loads and temperature fluctuations. The optimal PCM was RT-28 HC for the semi-arid climate with the highest annual average ATFR of 1.91 °C. In addition, the use of the double layers and triple layers PCM is more efficient compared to the single-layer PCM with energy consumption reduction from 7,30% to 15,21%. Also, the triple-layer system with mechanical ventilation showed the best energy efficiency and load shifting performance in the summer season. Finally, this research reveals that a triple configuration PCM wall comprising the paraffin RT-21+RT-25+RT-28 HC as PCM provides an optimal energy performance for heating in winter and free cooling in summer, as well as an annual energy saving of 102 kWh and 324 kWh in the heating and cooling season respectively, which considerably reduces the annual energy consumption.

Effect of phase change on jet atomization: a direct numerical simulation study

Atomization is often accompanied by phase change, which could significantly affect performance parameters such as the cooling efficiency and combustion efficiency of atomization. Nevertheless, the effect of phase change on jet atomization is rarely numerically studied due to the complexity of the coupling of the aerodynamics and the thermodynamics as well as the modelling difficulty caused by the cross-scale flow. In this study, comprehensive direct numerical simulations were carried out to evaluate the effects of phase change on the primary breakup and secondary atomization. Two methods dealing with phase-interface movement and mass transfer across the interface are built to meet the requirements of different modelling scales and Weber numbers. Simulation results indicate that phase change affects the flow behaviours and volume distribution of broken droplets in the primary breakup. In the secondary atomization, phase change leads to significantly different deforming morphologies of droplets with low Weber number and a more thorough breakup of droplets with high Weber number.

Influence of phase-change on the collapse and rebound stages of a single spark-generated cavitation bubble

Influences of phase-change are generally ignored by current numerical models that are used to study spark-generated cavitation bubble dynamics. However, this assumption was limited to predicting bubble behaviors only at the first expansion and collapse stages. In this study, we aimed to explore the phase-change effects on the cavitation bubble dynamics over multiple cycles. A combination of a two-phase homogeneous mixture model and interface-capturing method was adopted to simulate the bubble dynamics. The full compressibility of the water and vapor phases, heat transfer, condensation, and evaporation were involved in our numerical model. Phase-change processes due to pressure changes and temperature changes were evaluated to explore the major influence phenomenon on the bubble dynamics. By comparing with experimental data, a compatible bubble shape and radius evolution under a free-field condition was obtained, particularly at the rebound and collapse stages. Disturbance secondary cavitation regions in the water field induced by rarefaction waves were observed immediately after the second rebound stage. In addition, bubble dynamic behaviors were mainly affected by the condensation phenomenon. The condensation mass transfer rate increases, becomes extremely high at the final collapse stage, and decreases during the rebound stage. Moreover, the condensation phenomenon mainly occurs at the vapor–water bubble interfaces with a thin boundary layer. The evaporation phenomenon occurred purely inside bubbles with a uniform region. Finally, we discuss the effects of phase-change by temperature changes on the cavitation bubble dynamics. In general, these effects were sufficiently small during the first two-cycle bubble oscillations.

Synthesis, structure, phase controlled colour tuning of dinuclear Pr(III) and Tb(III) complexes with fluorinated β-diketone and heterocyclic Lewis base as UV light converters

Heteroleptic homo dinuclear complexes, [Pr(fod)3(μ-bpp)Pr(fod)3] and [Tb(fod)3(μ-bpp)Tb(fod)3] (fod is the anion of 6,6,7,7,8,8,8-heptafluoro-2,2-dimethyl-3,5-octanedione (Hfod) and bpp is 2,3-bis(2-pyridyl)pyrazine) have been synthesized and thoroughly characterized. The 1H NMR spectra of the complexes are consistent with the dinuclear complex formation. In the absorption spectra, the 3P2 ← 3H4, 3P1 + 1I6 ← 3H4 and 1D2 ← 3H4 transitions of Pr(III) complex show considerable sensitivity towards the host medium and prominent stark splitting of these transitions is observed in chloroform and dichloromethane. The effect of phase change on photophysical properties of Pr(III) and Tb(III) complexes is investigated by observing the steady state and time resolved fluorescence spectra of the solid complexes, their solutions and PMMA doped thin hybrid films. Intense emission is observed for the PMMA doped hybrid materials of the complexes. In the case of [Pr(fod)3(μ-bpp)Pr(fod)3] complex doped PMMA, additional emission peaks are observed from the high energy excited states (3P2, 1I6, 3P1 and 3P0), indicating that the PMMA facilitates emission from the higher emitting levels. The emitting colour of Pr(III) complex shows phase dependence with the emission of blue and purple light in the solutions, orange in solid state and in the case of PMMA doped hybrid films at a doping concentration of 5 % and 10 %, the Commission Internationale de l'Eclairage (CIE) colour coordinates are in the white region x = 0.351, y = 0.377 and light blue region x = 0.313, y = 0.319, respectively. Intense green light emission is observed for the terbium complex in all media. The semiempirical theoretical tool of Sparkle/PM7 has been used for obtaining the geometry of the complexes.

Effects of the inclination angles of DLC end face micro-texture on the tribological properties of dry gas seal rings

To improve the tribological performance of the seal rings in the dry gas seal, the elliptical micro-textures with different inclination angles (0°, 45°, 90°, 135°) were processed on the end face of SiC static rings by nanosecond laser. Diamond-like carbon (DLC) films were then deposited on the micro-textured end face. Under dry friction condition, the end-face friction and wear test was conducted to simulate the actual working state of the dry gas seal at start-up phase. The effects of micro-texture inclination angles and DLC phase change on the tribological properties of seal rings were investigated. The possible friction reduction mechanism was analyzed. The results show that compared with the smooth surface, the elliptical micro-texture can effectively improve the tribological properties of DLC films. At the same time, the inclination angle of the elliptical micro-texture has a remarkable influence on the tribological properties. When the micro-texture inclination angle is 90°, the static ring sample has the best friction reduction and wear resistance performance. Compared with the untextured sample, the average friction coefficient is reduced by 46.15%. The wear reduction characteristics of the textured end face are mainly contributed to the capturing effect of the texture on wear particles.

Mathematical Simulation and Experimental Verification of Carburizing Quenching Process Based on Multi-Field Coupling

Based on the multi-field coupling effect of temperature, diffusion, and phase change, the finite element model of carburizing and quenching was established. The 20CrMnTiH steel helical gear as the research object, prediction accuracy of carburizing, and quenching model of complex helical gear was studied. The material properties database of experimental steel was established by JMatPro, and the material thermophysical parameters needed in the calculation process were obtained. The carburizing and quenching process of transmission helical gear was numerically simulated by thermodynamic three-dimensional coupling analysis method combined with actual heat treatment process. The microstructure morphology, macro hardness, and deformation were characterized. The experimental results show that the microstructure of the hardened surface layer was acicular martensite and a small amount of residual austenite. The highest hardness appears at the surface layer of 778.8 HV, the effective hardened layer depth was 0.9 mm, and the maximum deformation of the gear was 0.055 mm. By comparing the experimental measurement results with the simulation results, they were in good agreement, which verifies the accuracy of the finite element model. This indicates that the model has good prediction ability in carburizing and quenching process.

Influence of inhomogeneous magnetic field on the qutrit teleportation via XXZ Heisenberg chain under intrinsic decoherence

We study qutrit teleportation through a qutritxxzchain, in the presence of intrinsic decoherence and a non-homogeneous magnetic field. We study the effects of intrinsic phase change, magnetic field and entanglement of the initial state of the channel. It is observed that while the intrinsic phase change and the non-homogeneity of the magnetic field have adverse effects on the teleportation fidelity, the entanglement of the initial state of the channel enhances the latter. Moreover, the intrinsic decoherence may remove the ripples from the time curve that is delivered by the Schrödinger channel.

Study on the hydrothermal coupling characteristics of polyurethane insulation boards slope protection structure incorporating phase change effect

The canals are essential for agricultural irrigation, shipping and industry as important hydraulic infrastructure. In the seasonal freeze regions, the water conveyance canals are damaged due to the effects of freeze–thaw cycles. The freeze depth of soil in the water transfer canal varies considerably due to changes in temperature and water content. This paper compared the relationship of freeze depth, temperature and water content by field tests and numerical calculation methods by incorporating phase change. The results from present study showed that the decrease in temperature causes the water in the soil to freeze, the ice front migrated downwards, and the water in soil below ice front gradually migrated towards the ice front resulting in a large difference in water content of the soil before and after freezing. The Polyurethane insulation board + Concrete board slope structure (PC) as an insulation slope structure was proposed in this paper to mitigate the effect of freezing and thawing on the water conveyance canals. The freeze depth decreased significantly under the protective effect. In addition, this paper compared the anti-frost effect of different thicknesses of polyurethane insulation boards, and the results provided a reference for the anti-frost design of water conveyance canals.

Thermal properties of a cement composite containing phase change materials (PCMs) with post-pyrolytic char obtained from spent tyres as a carrier

This work examines the possible use of post-pyrolysis char made from spent vehicle tyres as a carrier for phase change materials (PCM), which could be used as an additive to cement mortar. Because of the ability of PCM to accumulate heat, the cement composite obtained from it, apart from its structural and strength properties, will acquire an additional energy storage function, which can be very important for energy-saving construction.In the development of the new cement composite, Rubitherm RT22 was used as a PCM. Rubitherm's phase change temperature is within the range (ca 17–25 °C) of temperature fluctuations in buildings. Systematic comparative tests were carried out in order to evaluate the thermal properties of the new cement composite containing 0.67, 2.00, 3.33, 4.67 and 6.67% of char, which contains 32% PCM, i.e. the maximum amount that can be permanently absorbed without activation. These tests included calorimetric measurements of the influence of the composite's composition on the cumulative specific heat, and took phase change effects into consideration.The results of the experiments showed that the use of tyre char as a PCM carrier in cement mortars is not only possible, but also thermodynamically advantageous.

A new DNS formalism dedicated to turbulent two-phase flows with phase change

Phase change in multiphase flows occurs in many natural and industrial applications, e.g., rain formation, internal combustion engines, heat exchangers, multiphase reactors, etc. In dense two-phase flows, quantitative experimental results are scarce due to the complexity of the configuration and experimental techniques limitations. Hence, the interest in the direct numerical simulation of such flows has grown recently to better understand and access quantitative data in this kind of flows.When simulating phase change in multiphase flows, advanced numerical method are needed to consider the jump conditions at the interface, and to ensure mass, energy, momentum and species conservation. In the literature, this problem is mainly investigated with an incompressible formalism. However, this assumption is not longer suitable for simulation of multiphase flows with phase change in enclosed environment or in atomized/aerated flows.The purpose of this work is to present a numerical formalism dedicated to turbulent two phase flows, including acoustics and compressible effects with a proper treatment of the jump conditions at the interface due to phase change. To achieve this task, first, the incompressible level-set method for vaporizing two-phase flows proposed by Tanguy et al. (2007) is revisited and adapted to a mass conservative interface representation: The Coupled Level-set/Volume of Fluid method. In this context, evaporating static cylinder with a constant vaporization rate and a droplet vaporization (D2 law) have been performed as validation cases. Both cases illustrate the method accuracy and robustness in presence of velocity discontinuities at the interface due to the presence of the Stefan flow. The D2 law configuration is used as validation of the implementation of the heat and mass transfer transport equations with their jump conditions and the coupling of the evaporation rate with the flow dynamic.Then, the numerical method is extended to compressible flows using the framework dedicated to the pressure based method proposed by Duret et al. (2018). The main advantage of this framework is the ability to consider acoustics effects, variable density and multiple gas inclusions with its own thermodynamic pressure. A modified Volume of Fluid transport equation is presented, including phase change and compressibility effects. Navier–Stokes and heat and mass transfer transport equation are solved using compressible assumptions. A validation case of a static evaporating cylinder in an enclosed environment is studied to illustrate and quantify the mass conservation properties of the method and the mass transfer between the two phases. Finally, a 3D two-phase Homogeneous Isotropic Turbulence (HIT) configuration is presented to demonstrate the potential of this method in presence of breakup, gas encapsulation, coalescence and evaporation processes.
