The problem of the unsteady nucleation of the liquid phase in rapidly expanding flows of supercooled steam in the turbomachinery flow path was raised and solved. In order to solve it, the Zel’dovich–Frenkel classical theory of condensation for the case of time-dependent external conditions was elabo...
