Muehlbauer, et. al., 2001-future-needs-on-CFD

The document which written by Muehlbauer, P., (2001) describe the present capabilities of more than three CFD-type computer codes to simulate two-phase flows and the future needs on the two-phase CFD computer codes. Principal approaches to description of two-phase flows, their advantages, and disadvantages are discussed. Also for each of the codes two-phase flow and heat transfer are already described in some detail. From all of CFD-type computer codes that described, there are three CFD codes i.e., FLUENT, STAR-CD, and CFX which have more capabilities especially for “3D codes for open medium” to simulate two-phase flows and there is a short description of the two-phase flow capabilities of several other CFD-type computer codes i.e., TRIO-U, NEPTUNE, and PHOENICS.
