In fluent, when set the vof model,we can generally set the evaporation and condensation frequency to simulate , but there are new great means to achieve ,for instance ,in starccm+,it depends on the temperature ,like water ,when more than 100℃，the meshes related become gas，when decrease，become water，it calculate like this，researchers around me think it is a greater way to similate. But in fluent，is there a  calculate method  like this？

If you mean an ALE solver they're an older technology and one we don't have in Fluent. Otherwise, I'm not sure what you mean. The Eulerian multiphase model may be more suitable if you're not wanting to resolve the bubbles/droplets.

oh I see,another question is when I create the look up table for the nist gas,how can I download the table

[Rob]

I can't see an obvious route in the TUI or manuals. Whilst it may be possible, if it's not documented I can't share a method.

Rob，which city are you live，I just want to know the time difference 

[Rob]

UK, but my activity times on here are very dependent on the rest of the day job. Other staff are global, so may be on at odd times.
