Since the second edition of Liquid-Vapor Phase-Change Phenomena was written, research
has substantially enhanced the understanding of the effects of nanostructured surfaces …

Direct numerical simulations of multiphase flows, using a front-tracking method, are
presented. The method is based on writing one set of governing equations for the whole …

A numerical method to simulate liquid–vapor phase change is presented. The method is
based on the so-called single field formulation where one set of equations for conservation …

Intended to provide an up-to-date overview of the field, this book is also likely to become a
standard work of reference on the science of droplets. Beginning with the theoretical …

Organic Rankine cycle (ORC) power plants are considered as one of the most promising
technologies to generate power from low temperature heat sources such as biomass …

In an experimental investigation of the transient processes that occur when a single droplet
of butane at the superheat limit vaporizes explosively, short-exposure photographs and fast …

Flow visualization as well as three-dimensional cavitating flow simulations have been
employed for characterizing the formation of cavitation inside transparent replicas of fuel …

In this study a model for the heat transfer into a single drop impacting onto a hot solid
substrate in the film boiling regime is developed. The model accounts for the expansion of …

ABSTRACT A review of the published work on the flashing of a two-phase flow system,
owing to a sudden depressurization of a compressed liquid, is presented. Of concern is the …

Wave Propagation in Gas-Liquid Media (translated from the Russian 2nd Edition, published
in 1990) presents the fundamentals of wave dynamics of two-phase gas-liquid systems. The …
