A methodology for the modelling of phase change phenomena in two-phase flow is presented, based on interface capturing simulation and the mechanistic modelling of interfacial heat and mass transfer. The volume of fluid approach is adopted, utilising a compressive scheme to maintain interface sharpness, allowing a continuum representation of mass and heat source terms to be used. The methodology is verified against analytical solutions for both evaporation and condensation phase change problems, demonstrating excellent agreement even in the case of a large phase density ratio and high rate of evaporation.
