Hello,
I am modelling a geothermal system, where a porous rock is saturated with groundwater and heated by an intrusion of magma.
I have used 'Heat transfer in porous media' coupled with the 'Brinkmann equations' to simulate convection. However, I wish to include the phase change of the groundwater from liquid to steam within the porous rock.
Does anyone have experience with modelling a phase change of fluid in a porous medium, or have any ideas about how to do this?
Many thanks,
Hannah
