Vermolen, F.J. Vuik, C. Faculty Electrical Engineering, Mathematics and Computer Science Department Delft Institute of Applied Mathematics Date 2010-05-01 Abstract In this paper we apply a new method to solve multi-phase fluid flow problem for 1D1D and 2D2D fluid systems. This method is developed at TNO and presented in [1] for spatially homogeneous systems. We call this method the numerical density-enthalpy method (or ??-hh method) because density-enthalpy phase diagrams (or ??-hh diagrams) play an important role in it. Finite elements are used for spatial discretization along with the streamline upwind PetrovGalerkin method. In contrast to conventional methods, the ??-hh method eliminates the requirement of separate sets of equations for various phases and necessitates fewer parametric assumptions. Therefore, it is aimed at a simple formulation and at an increase of efficiency.
