Description
A model for the flashing process is proposed and based on the wall nucleation theory, bubble growth model and drift-flux bubble transport model. The model predictions are compared to Moby Dick and BNL experimental data. They show that satisfactory agreements could be obtained from the model. This result indicates that the mechanistic prediction of the flashing phenomenon is possible based on the present wall nucleation based model
