capillary of a refrigerant unit

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Hi everibody.

I want to simulate this problem:

A phase change inside a capillary of a compression - type refrigerant unit.

I tried to use the coniugate heat transfer - laminar flow physics adding "heat transfer with phase change" inside the module but comsol makes me to change only the temperature between the two phases and the transition temperature while in this case the evaporation is a "flash evaporation" taking place at a variable condition of temperature and pressure (not in a condition of costant temperature). I'd want to have the pressure as main parameter, not the temperature.

Which kind of physics can i use to simulate this problem? Thank you.
