Simulation of Thermoconvective Flows as Applied to Design of Water Cooling Tower by Use of Mixture Model

A. G. Trifonov and A. S. Khadzko

Thermoconvective flows are investigated on base of solution of 3D conservation equations in approximation of mixture model. Hyperbolic cooling tower is under consideration. Natural convection inside the design of a hyperbolic cooling tower depending on the temperature of the inside wall is considered. The values of the velocity field and the maximum velocity of the vapor-air flow are obtained.

Key words: multi-component flows, nuclear power plant, thermo-convective flow, COMSOL Multiphysic, calculation module, cooling tower
