Liquid–vapor phase transition process during underwater electrical wire explosion

The liquid–vapor two-phase region has attracted the attention of various fundamental studies and applications. To explore region, underwater electrical wire explosion (UEWE) is a useful tool. In this work, we observe two different mechanisms transition in UEWE: volume vaporization spinodal decomposition. main factors through which occur are heating power pressure accumulation system during UEWE. From properties shadowgraph images, phase process exploding analyzed. effects possible instabilities also discussed. We expect that thermodynamic can be explored using UEWE technique based on understanding process.
