Numerical Study on Single Droplet's Rise in Steam Separator by Using VOF Method

摘要

The single droplet's rise in high pressure steam of steam separator was simulated by using VOF method. The droplet deformed periodically in the high pressure steam. The drag coefficient was calculated and compared with Schiller-Naumann correlation, which is often used in steam separator's CFD simulation. This correlation was imprecise for droplets in steam separator.
