Hello,<\/p>\n

I have a couple of doubts about condensation simulation.<\/p>\n

Here is the domain for the simulation:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The water vapor enters the chamber at a temperature of 300K through an inlet on the right side of the chamber. I have set the saturation temperature to 280K and the bottom temperature to 270K.  All other walls are adiabatic. I have created an inflation layer at the bottom. Only the phase change mechanism is considered, using the mixture model. The vapor condenses at the bottom and forms a liquid layer, which actually happens.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

However, when I created an inflation layer at the top wall, condensation also occurred at the top wall. I don’t understand why this is happening, as the temperature there is greater than the saturation temperature.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Also, what kind of boundary condition should I apply for this? The chamber simply opens to the atmosphere. Should I go for a velocity boundary, mass flow, or pressure boundary condition?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-366843","topic","type-topic","status-closed","hentry"],"aioseo_notices":[],"acf":[],"custom_fields":[{"0":{"_bbp_subscription":["348840"],"_bbp_author_ip":["23.32.16.87"]," _bbp_last_reply_id":["0"]," _bbp_likes_count":["0"],"_btv_view_count":["199"],"_bbp_topic_status":["unanswered"],"_bbp_topic_id":["366843"],"_bbp_forum_id":["27792"],"_bbp_engagement":["348840"],"_bbp_voice_count":["1"],"_bbp_reply_count":["1"],"_bbp_last_reply_id":["367721"],"_bbp_last_active_id":["367721"],"_bbp_last_active_time":["2024-05-21 05:21:22"]},"test":"bhavanaeliz09gmail-com"}],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/366843","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/topic"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/366843\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=366843"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
