SUMMARY
The discussion clarifies the distinction between flash evaporation and cavitation. Flash evaporation refers to the single-stage transition of fluid to gas, while cavitation involves the formation of bubbles in a fluid due to pressure changes. The participants emphasize that these two phenomena are not directly related, particularly in the context of computational fluid dynamics (CFD). The user seeks to model flash evaporation in CFD, indicating a specific application of these concepts in thermal processes.
