Aerogel is studied numerically using a one-dimensional two-phase flow equations system. A hyperbolic and conservative two-phase flow model is applied to a mixture of porous media containing nanofluids. The application of non-equilibrium mixture behavior between phases is adopted and promoted in this current investigation. By establishing mixture conservation balance laws, finite volume techniques using Godunov methods of centered type are extended to aerogel simulations. Numerical results are compared with other methods providing a remarkable agreement. The computed results demonstrate the key capabilities of this existing mixture model in the resolution of discontinuities in aerogel problems and more reliable than applying a sophisticated single-phase flows with complex property models.

This paper describes the development of an approximate solution for the numerical computation for a one-dimensional two-phase flow equations. The equations include source terms which account for the relaxation of volume fraction and the interfacial fraction. A simple splitting numerical method, which handles separately the homogeneous and source terms problems, is used to compute approximations of the solutions. The homogeneous problem is solved numerically using Godunov methods of centred-type. This solution is then employed in the source terms problem to solve the general initial-value problem for the two-phase flow equations. Numerical results are presented demonstrating the complete approach. The results show that the interphase interaction through the source terms appearing in the equations.

A simulation model for the direct contact condensation of steam in subcooled water is presented that allows determination of major parameters of the process, such as the jet penetration length. Entrainment of water by the steam jet is modeled based on the Kelvin–Helmholtz and Rayleigh–Taylor instability theories. Primary atomization due to acceleration of interfacial waves and secondary atomization due to aerodynamic forces account for the initial size of entrained droplets. The resulting steam-water two-phase flow is simulated based on a one-dimensional two-fluid model. An interfacial area transport equation is used to track changes of the interfacial area density due to droplet entrainment and steam condensation. Interfacial heat and mass transfer rates during condensation are calculated using the two-resistance model. The resulting two-phase flow equations constitute a system of ordinary differential equations, which is solved by means of the explicit Runge–Kutta–Fehlberg algorithm. The simulation results are in good qualitative agreement with published experimental data over a wide range of pool temperatures and mass flow rates.
