Two-dimensional simulation of frost formation on the NACA0012 airfoil under strong convection by using the p-VOF method

Abstract A newly developed frosting simulation method, p-VOF method, is applied to simulate the dynamic frost formation on the NACA0012 airfoil under strong convection. The p-VOF method is a pseudo VOF method of the multiphase flow simulation with phase change. By solving a simplified mass conservat...
