Film boiling in VOF multiphase model

rupak504 · April 17, 2020, 18:10

hello,

I am simulating film boiling. For that, I am referring a paper boil.jpg as you see in the figure, we have two equations that need to be inserted using UDF in VOF multiphase model. I understand the second equation, and I have already written UDF for that, but I don't understand how to include the first equation.

Any help would be highly appreciated

regards

I suppose you are stuck due to the dot product. You need to fetch gradients of temperature and volume fraction using C_T_G and C_VOF_G and then calculate their dot product.
