Abstract

Two-phase flows are widely encountered in many natural phenomena and industrial processes. The presence of one or more interfaces between the two phases presents a major difficulty which makes the modeling and the simulation of this type of flow complex. This work consists in performing a three-dimensional numerical simulation of a two-phase Hydrogen-Water flow inside a horizontal cylindrical channel. The results are obtained in the form of velocity contours, enthalpy and pressures.
