Augmentation of Boiling Heat Transfer from Horizontal Cylinder to Liquid by Movable Particles.

On the natural convective heat transfer from a cold horizontal cylinder over an adiabatic surface

A steady two-dimensional laminar free convection heat transfer from a cold horizontal isothermal cylinder located above an adiabatic floor is studied both experimentally and numerically. In the experimental measurements the effects of cylinder distance from horizontal floor to its diameter (L/D) on heat transfer coefficient is studied for Rayleigh numbers of 3×105 and 6×105. Computations are ma...

Heat Transfer Efficiency of Turbulent Film Boiling on a Horizontal Elliptical Tube with External Flowing Liquid

Film boiling on a horizontal elliptical tube immersed in external flowing nitrogen liquid is investigated in the present paper. The isothermal wall temperature is high enough to induce turbulent film boiling, and then a continuous vapor film runs upward over the surface. The high velocity of the flowing saturated liquid at the boundary layer is determined by potential flow theory. In addition, ...

Simulation of Boiling Heat Transfer within Water Jacket of 4-cylinder Gasoline Engine (TECHNICAL NOTE)

Shrinking the engine has been a great interest for many years. Providing more amount of heat transfer may supply possibilities for size reduction in engine parts specifically the engine water jacket that is of concentration for the present study. Boiling phenomenon, by providing more amounts of heat transfer in comparison with single-phase, provides conditions for size reduction. In this paper ...

Saturated Flow Boiling Heat Transfer in Horizontal Square Tube

A Free-Particles-Based Technique for Boiling Heat Transfer Enhancement in a Wetting Liquid

An easy-to-implement technique for pool boiling heat transfer enhancement is proposed and evaluated through an experimental investigation. This free-particle technique brings about nucleate boiling at a low degree of superheat by means of metal particles that are not fixed to the heated surface, but rather are free to move with respect to the surface. The effects of copper particles with sizes ...
