Problems with multiphase wetsteam model

April 7, 2006, 10:09

I'm tring to make a tesi on the nucleation of water in the last stage of LP turbine. I'm using the wetsteam model present in Fluent 2.16 and I face convergence difficulties while solving wet steam flow, also using first order discretization schemes, lower under-relaxation (0.1). I have many problems expecialy with the "wsb" equation. There is some one can help me? Thank you very much! Guido

it is very difficoult that yuo can have good result in convergence with wet steam model.

hello everyone,
I have a real gas contains vapor water as my material that in my model water condensation will occur. please tell me if i can use the "wet steam" model in my simulation. if yes, can I use the srk eos as udf with wet steam model because the pressure in my work is very high.
thanks a lot
