Nonrealizability Problem With Quadrature Method of Moments in Wet-Steam Flows and Solution Techniques
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The quadrature method of moments (QMOM) has recently attracted much attention in representing the size distribution of liquid droplets in wet-steam flows using the n-point Gaussian quadrature. However, solving transport ...
Comparison of Moment-Based Methods for Representing Droplet Size Distributions in Supersonic Nucleating Flows of Steam
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper investigates the performance of moment-based methods and a monodispersed model (Mono) in predicting the droplet size distribution and behavior of wet-steam flows. The studied moment-based methods are a conventional ...
Numerical Investigation of Two-Phase Shock Waves in CO2 Flows Using a Modified Hertz–Knudsen Model
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Understanding the complex behavior of two-phase shocks in CO2 flows is essential for a variety of applications, including carbon capture and storage () and transcritical refrigeration cycles. This study presents a comprehensive ...
Effect of FreeStream Velocity Definition on Boundary Layer Thickness and Losses in Centrifugal Compressors
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The estimation of boundary layer losses requires the accurate specification of the freestream velocity, which is not straightforward in centrifugal compressor blade passages. This challenge stems from the jet-wake flow ...
