Highly subcooled pool boiling heat transfer at various gravity levels

Highly subcooled pool boiling heat transfer at various gravity levels

A microscale heater array 2:7 mm 2:7 mm in size along with a video camera was used to provide subcooled pool boiling heat transfer measurements at gravity levels ranging from 1.8g to 10 g. The fluid was FC-72 at 1 atm and subcooled by nominally 36 C for all cases. A Terrier–Orion sounding rocket and the KC-135 aircraft were used to provide the microgravity and low-g environments, respectively. ...

Pool Boiling Heat Transfer in Water/Amines Solutions

In this investigation, nucleate boiling heat transfer coefficients were experimentally measured during pool boiling of mixtures, consisting of water/monoethanolamine and water/diethanolamine on a horizontal heating rod, under atmospheric pressure. The experiment was carried out below 205 kW.m-2 heat flux, over a wide range of concentrations. These experiments include, measurement of pool boilin...

Heater size and heater aspect ratio effects on subcooled pool boiling heat transfer in low - g

Pool boiling heat transfer measurements using heaters of varying aspect ratio were obtained in low-g (0.01 g ± 0.025 g) aboard the KC-135 aircraft. The heater aspect ratio was varied by selectively powering 2 · 2, 2 · 4, 2 · 6, 2 · 8, and 2 · 10 arrays of heaters in a 10 · 10 heater array containing individual heaters 0.7 · 0.7 mm in size. Electronic control circuitry was used to maintain an is...

Experimental Investigation in Pool Boiling Heat Transfer of Pure/Binary Mixtures and Heat Transfer Correlations

Nucleate pool boiling heat transfer coefficient have been experimentally measured on a horizontal rod heater for various liquid binary mixtures. Measurements are based on more than three hundred data points on a wide range of concentrations and heat fluxes. In this investigation, it has been confirmed that the heat transfer coefficient in boiling solutions are regularly less than those in p...
