A three-dimensional one-way bubble tracking method is a promising numerical method for calculation of time-spatial evolution of gas-liquid interfacial configuration with use of a little computing resource. Since the method has been applied to only an adiabatic air-water bubble flow, the method is developed for the analysis of a boiling flow in this study. One-dimensional Eulerian equation of energy conservation for a continuous liquid phase and an interface heat transfer equation for dispersed bubbles are introduced. Then, radial liquid temperature distribution, wall heat transfer between a heated wall and subcooled liquid, bubble generation on a heated wall and expansion or condensation of bubbles are taken into account. The developed method is applied to the boiling flow experiment and radial void fraction distribution is compared. It is confirmed that the method can give good prediction of tendency of the void fraction distribution in the boiling flow.

Times Cited Count:13 Percentile:41.68(Physics, Fluids & Plasmas)The National Centralized Tokamak (NCT) facility program is a domestic research program for advanced tokamak research to succeed JT-60U incorporating Japanese university accomplishments. The mission of NCT is to establish high beta steady-state operation for DEMO and to contribute to ITER. The machine flexibility and mobility is pursued in aspect ratio and shape controllability, feedback control of resistive wall modes, wide current and pressure profile control capability for the demonstration of the high-b steady state.

Times Cited Count:15 Percentile:45.44(Physics, Fluids & Plasmas)Design studies are shown on the National Centralized Tokamak facility. The machine design is carried out to investigate the capability for the flexibility in aspect ratio and shape controllability for the demonstration of the high-beta steady state operation with nation-wide collaboration, in parallel with ITER towards DEMO. Two designs are proposed and assessed with respect to the physics requirements such as confinement, stability, current drive, divertor, and energetic particle confinement. The operation range in the aspect ratio and the plasma shape is widely enhanced in consistent with the sufficient divertor pumping. Evaluations of the plasma performance towards the determination of machine design are presented.
