Abstract

A numerical study has been performed to determine heat and mass transfer from the surface of liquid ethanol flowing in an inclined channel. The Volume-of-fluid (VOF) multiphase model was used to track the liquid and gas phases. An algorithm has been implemented to determine interfacial heat and mass transfer characteristics. A parametric study was done to determine the effect of gas-phase inlet velocity, temperature, and vapor mass fraction.
