Experimental Study on Liquid Film Thickness of Annular Flow in Microchannels
Many studies were carried out to investigate the flow and heat transfer characteristics of two-phase flow in microchannels because of its advantage in improving heat exchange performance, it has been well revealed that liquid film thickness and flow pattern play important roles in determining the heat transfer characteristics. However, these data is still limited to understanding properties of ...
متن کاملThe Behavior Of Gas Bubbles Entrained In The Liquid Film Of Horizontal Annular Flow
Small entrained vapor bubbles can have a significant impact on the evaporation or condensation of a thin liquid film as may be found in the annular flow of refrigerant in a heat exchanger. For example, past work has indicated that unattached small vapor bubbles serve as sites for vaporization within a film that, on average, would be too thin to support nucleate boiling. Vapor entrained in a thi...
متن کاملThickness of residual wetting film in liquid-liquid displacement.
Core-annular flow is common in nature, representing, for example, how streams of oil, surrounded by water, move in petroleum reservoirs. Oil, typically a nonwetting fluid, tends to occupy the middle (core) part of a channel, while water forms a surrounding wall-wetting film. What is the thickness of the wetting film? A classic theory has been in existence for nearly 50 years offering a solution...
متن کاملA New Approach for the Measurement of Film Thickness in Liquid Face Seals
Face seals operate by allowing a small volume of the sealed fluid to escape and form a thin film between the contacting parts. The thickness of this film must be optimised to ensure the faces are separated, yet the leakage is minimised. In this work the liquid film is measured using a novel ultrasonic approach with a view to developing a condition monitoring tool. The trials were performed in t...
متن کاملMeasurement and Modeling of Liquid Film Thickness Evolution in Stratified Two-phase Microchannel Flows
Polymer Electrolyte Membrane (PEM) fuel cells incorporating microchannels (D<500 μm) can benefit from improved fuel delivery and convective cooling. However, this requires a better understanding of twophase microchannel transport phenomena, particularly liquid-gas interactions and liquid clogging in cathode air-delivery channels. This paper develops optical fluorescence imaging of water films i...
