CFD calculations of flow pattern maps and LES of multiphase flows

Abstract: Boiling crisis and flows occurring in a steam generator or a heat exchanger remain a major limiting phenomenon for the analysis of operation and safety of both nuclear reactors and conventional thermal power systems. Firstly, the choice is made to investigate a hybrid modeling of the flow, considering the gas phase as two separated fields, each one being modeled with different closure laws. In so doing, the small and spherical bubbles are modeled through a dispersed approach within the two-fluid model, and the… Show more

“…The LBM ( Denèfle, 2013;Denèfle et al, 2015;Mimouni et al, 2017 ) is the most sophisticated of the models considered in the present study. Here, distinct dispersed ( dg ) and continuous ( cg ) gas phases are considered, making the LBM a 3 −field model involving separate cl → cg and cl → dg momentum exchange closures.…”

“…An important consequence of this difference is that the drag force on uncontaminated bubbles grows linearly rather than quadratically with the rise velocity ( Batchelor, 1967 ). In NEPTUNE_CFD, this state of affairs led Fleau (2017) (see also Mimouni et al, 2017 ) to assume that the interfacial momentum transfer toward a cg entity involves a characteristic length scale l g and is proportional to μ l l g (u cl − u cg ) , so that the momentum exchange rate per unit volume may be written in the form…”

“…As a first step towards this new approach, we have simplified the general concept by considering the liquid phase as continuous in our simulations. The main results obtained with NEPTUNE CFD are presented in [61][62][63][64].…”

“…The criteria to switch from the large interfaces treated with the LBMo to the dispersed field and the opposite are not given in this paper since we will focus on the large interfaces. Readers are invited to refer to Mimouni et al [2017] for details. However, industrial studies require the ability of dealing with both turbulence and phase change effects.…”
