- Automotive IC Engine evaporative cooling system concepts, for application to hybrid electric vehicle design, require computational fluid dynamics (CFD) solutions of 2-Phase flow across a wide range, including where nucleate boiling occurs. Two different CFD approaches i.e. RANS and LES are used to study boiling in a simple channel. A multi-phase mixture modelling approach, with a Volume-of-Fluid interface-capturing method, has been employed. This capability could have a significant impact on future design of IC engine cooling systems. The work is funded by EPSRC with partners: Ford, Ricardo, and Toyota, under contract EP/M005755/1 Contact: Dr Cedric Rouaud. Email: Cedric.Rouaud@ricardo.com
