The boiling water model template contains domain settings for
a simulation modeling the boiling of water. The domain boiling
device
is specified with two fluids: Water at
100 C
and Water Vapour at 100 C
. Water at 100 C
is the continuous phase and Water
Vapour at 100 C
is the dispersed phase. The inhomogeneous
multiphase model is employed. For details, see The Inhomogeneous (Interfluid Transfer) Model in the CFX-Solver Modeling Guide.
Boiling is modeled by setting the Mass Transfer option on the Fluid Pair Models tab to Phase Change
(which uses the Thermal Phase Change model
and requires a saturation temperature).
Review all settings applied to the simulation and create suitable boundary conditions. For details, see Thermal Phase Change Model in the CFX-Solver Modeling Guide. Initialization data must also be set. For details, see Initial Conditions for a Multiphase Simulation in the CFX-Solver Modeling Guide.
