摘要
A numerical scheme for optimization of surface temperature and vapor volume fraction in subcooled flow boiling is developed. The finite volume method and Euler-Euler approach were used to numerically simulate the flow field. The turbulence model of k - epsilon is used to simulate the Reynold stresses in the averaged Navier Stokes equations. The objective functions for optimization is maximum wall surface temperature and averaged vapor volume fraction at the outlet. The variables of optimization and neural network are pressure, mass flux, inlet subcooled temperature and heat flux. Around one hundred simulations for a wide range of parameters are performed to obtain the optimum objective functions. The numerical simulation results were in good agreement With the experimental results. The results obtained from the genetic algorithm were presented in this article. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd.
