Abstract In this paper, the process of the liquid flow on the heat tube surface was carried out using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation method. Based on the three��dimensional grid model, the flow profile and the spread morphology of the liquid on the tube surface, the film thickness distribution and the keeping time of the liquid around the tube were investigated under different density of liquid distribution. The simulated result was coordinated with the experimental work, and it will be very helpful for better understanding the liquid flow process of falling film, as well as the design and optimization of the evaporator.
