Abstract: | In this paper, the modelling of pure fluid steady-state adiabatic flashing flow through a pipe involving an abrupt enlargement is presented. The thermal non-equilibrium two-phase flow model DEM has been adjusted for subcooled inlet conditions close to saturation and/or for inlet two-phase mixture state. The multichoking flow phenomenon occurs when two basic criteria are simultaneously fulfilled. A general procedure taking into account this possible occurrence is developed on the basis of two iterative algorithms. The first algorithm is applied to the mass flow rate upstream from the enlargement and the second algorithm is based on the length of the pipe downstream from the enlargement. The proposed methodology involves the improved physical one-dimensional two-phase flow model DEM and the global non-equilibrium model through the abrupt enlargement. |
