Modeling of High Pressure Droplet Vaporization with Flash Phase Equilibrium Calculation

플래시 상평형 방법에 의한 고압 액적 기화 모델

Unsteady vaporization of a droplet quiescent in a high pressure environment are studied with emphasis placed oil the modeling of equilibrium at vapor-liquid interface. Complete set of conservation equations for liquid and gas phases is numerically time integrated. Vapor-liquid interfacial thermodynamics are solved by f]ash equilibrium calculation method. The model was proper]y validated with experiment and the improvement in the solution accuracy was made. Vaporization of n-pentane fuel droplet in nitrogen background gas is examined. Effects of ambient gas solubility, property variation, transient diffusion, and multicomponent transport on the droplet vaporization are investigated systematically. High-pressure effects on the droplet vaporization is examined and discussed.
