Numerical simulation of subcooled flow boiling in a vertical rectangular duct was carried out using a one-way bubble tracking method; this method treats each bubble as an individual particle. Although a bubble behavior after lifting off the heated surface depends on the bubble size and velocity at lift-off, these lift-off conditions are not taken into consideration in existing subcooled flow boiling models. In the present simulation, the distributions of lift-off velocity and bubble size were considered. It was demonstrated that the calculated void fraction in subcooled flow boiling is influenced significantly by the lift-off conditions.
