Test Case
A water film Reynolds number of 417 and a plate inclination angle of 40° without counter current airflow are selected for the present study. The film is introduced as a mass flux boundary on the wall patch injection. Film thickness is calculated at a downstream location wall-monitor.

Fluid domain is air while water-liquid is injected at the wall patch. |
Dimensions of the domain: 500 mm x 100 mm x 100 mm Injection width: 5 mm Wall-monitor width: 50 mm |
Mass Flux of Water-liquid = 76.2 kg/m2-s X-Gravitational Acceleration = 6.305746 m/s2 Y-Gravitational Acceleration = 0 m/s2 Z-Gravitational Acceleration = -7.514896 m/s2 |
