      The Droplet Condensation Model is useful for situations where a dry (or near-saturation) two-phase flow undergoes rapid pressure reduction leading to nucleation and subsequent droplet condensation. There are build-in models available describing the mass and heat transfer between phases. How to reproduce the ANSYS CFX Solver behavior when using a user-defined Small Droplet Model for the Heat Transfer is described in the attached document.
