A numerical study of multiphase flow boiling heat transfer of nanofluids in the horizontal metal foam tubes

The study aims to numerically investigate the flow boiling of Al2O3/H2O and CuO/H2O nanofluids and water in pipes filled with copper metal foams. Four different values of porosity and three values of pore density have been used. To perform numerical simulation, the mixture model has been developed....
