Development of film heat transfer model based on multiphase flow numerical analysis

Automobiles will have to be applied strict regulations such as Euro7 against PM, HC, CO. The generation of these components are related to fuel deposition to the wall surface of the combustion chamber. Therefore, the fuel injection model of engine combustion CFD requires accurate prediction about the deposition and vaporization of fuel on the combustion chamber. In this study, multiphase flow numerical analysis that simulates fuel behavior on the wall surface was conducted first. Then, two model formulae about the contact area and the heat flux of a liquid film was constructed based on the result of multiphase flow numerical analysis method. Finally, the new film heat transfer model was constructed from these model formulae. In addition, it was confirmed that new heat transfer model can predict the liquid film temperature obtained by multiphase flow numerical analysis method accurately.
