Modelling heat and mass flow through packed pebble beds : a heterogeneous volume-averaged approach
This work details modelling buoyancy-driven viscous flow and heat transfer through heterogeneous saturated packed pebble beds via a set of volume-averaged conservation equations in which local thermal disequilibrium is accounted for. The latter refers to the two phases considered viz. solid and flui...
