摘要
A similarity transformation has been proposed to study the two-phase boundary layer equations derived by Wang and Beckermann for capillary porous media. By virtue of the present transformation, the set of governing equations and boundary conditions for the pressure-driven boiling flow over a body of arbitrary shape reduces to the one for the flow over a flat plate. The dryout heat fluxes for pressure-driven boiling flows over a plate, a wedge, a cone, a sphere and a horizontal circular cylinder are correlated with the fluid thermophysical properties and porous medium parameters. The study confirms that the capillary force plays an important role in boiling flows in porous media, (C) 1999 Elsevier Science Ltd.
