Understanding two-phase cryogenic propellant behavior is key to enabling technologies for future spaceflight missions. Developing accurate models of two-phase flow phenomena, particularly in the current work, flow boiling in the heating configuration, is relevant to the propellant transfer process both in 1-g and microgravity. Currently there is a need for more accurate, direct cryogenic data anchored models for various boiling phenomena. Recently, universal correlations for cryogens flowing in heated tubes have been developed for a wide variety of fluids, thermodynamic conditions, and various regimes across the boiling curve, and have been patched to provide a smooth, continuous predictive curve. This paper describes implementation and validation of these correlations into Thermal Desktop to improve predictive performance, with a focus on liquid helium. Results from Thermal Desktop using both the built-in and new correlations are validated against a historical dataset of flow boiling experiments in the heating configuration using liquid helium. Based on results, the new correlations show a substantial improvement over the original built-in flow boiling correlations in Thermal Desktop in predicting the wall temperature as a function of preponderant parameters for this quantum fluid at temperatures greater than the lambda temperature, T λ = 2.17K.
