...Xu Han; Wei Zeng; Zhonghe Han Purpose The purpose of this study is to improved the efficiency of condensing steam turbines by legitimately reforming the flow structure. It is of great significance to study the condensation flow characteristics of wet steam for optimizing the operation...

...Xu Han; Zhonghe Han; Wei Zeng; Peng Li; Jiangbo Qian Purpose The purpose of this paper is to study the condensation flow of wet steam in the last stage of a steam turbine and to obtain the distribution of condensation parameters such as nucleation rate, Mach number and wetness. Design...

... with a simplified analytical model in the molecular region. Applications to compressible and condensation problems are also presented, and the results are discussed. Originality/value The hybrid method proposed in this paper allows cost-effective computer simulations of large-scale problems with an accurate...

...Dean Besednjak; Alojz Poredosˇ; Leopold Sˇkerget A three‐dimensional numerical analysis was carried out to study in detail the combined heat and mass transfer processes between a moist air flow and a cooled surface when film condensation occurs. A cross‐flow was considered between the air flow...

...M.B. Shafii; A. Faghri; Yuwen Zhang An advanced heat transfer model for both unlooped and looped Pulsating Heat Pipes (PHPs) with multiple liquid slugs and vapor plugs has been developed. The thin film evaporation and condensation models have been incorporated with the model to predict the behavior...
