CFD solutions of multi-phase, single-component flow
through a vertical channel, filled with a porous medium,
heated from one side, are shown. Steady-state solutions
are presented for Darcian flow through capillary porous
media. Local thermal non- equilibrium is used with a
two-phase mixture. The effects of variation of Pecletnumber
and dimensionless heat input are shown. The
displacement effect of the super-heated vapor reduces the
free cross-section of flow of the liquid fluid and
accelerates the liquid fluid flowing past the evaporation
front. The temperatures, liquid saturations, liquid and
vapor heat transfer coefficients are shown for cases with
super-heated vapor.
