Abstract Two-phase problems play vital roles in several industrial applications in power generation sectors. The energy crisis is one of the major concerns in today’s world. Fuel sprays are still widely used in the automotive industry because of their high energy content on a volumetric basis and favorable storage. Two-phase problems related to the automotive sprays, whether it is inside the fuel injector or as an emerging spray in the combustion chamber, continue to garner tremendous interest in the scientific community. Different industrial applications, such as fuel cells or ferrofluid propulsion systems, encounter two-phase problems, which need in-depth understanding to improve energy efficiency and ensure durability. Apart from experimental investigations, researchers also need to resort to numerical simulations to cater to the new challenges and innovative product design as well as to better understand the underlying science. Running large-scale simulations using high-performance computing (HPC) unravels unforeseen insights. Therefore, gathering knowledge of HPC systems and usage is a prerequisite to carry out industry-relevant numerical simulation studies. Boiling and condensation are commonly encountered in nuclear energy and other power generation devices. Both experimental and numerical efforts have been reported in the literature for the advancement of the fundamental understanding of these processes. This book will cover all the above-mentioned aspects regarding two-phase problems, which are part and parcel of different power generation sectors.
