Saturated Flow Boiling Heat Transfer in Horizontal Square Tube

The Effect of Linear Change of Tube Diameter on Subcooled Flow Boiling and Critical Heat Flux

One of the major industry problems is the flow boiling, where reaching to the critical heat flux (CHF) condition can lead to a temperature jump and damage of the systems. In the present study, the effects of a uniform change in tube diameter on subcooled flow boiling and CHF was numerically investigated. The Euler-Euler model was used to investigate the relationship between the two liquid and v...

Two Phase Heat Transfer Characteristics in a Vertical Small Diameter Tube at Sub Atmospheric Pressure

Two-phase heat transfer is experimentally examined through vertical small diameter tubes, D =1.45 and 2.8 mm using water under a pressure of 50 to 81 kPa and a natural circulation condition. The pool boiling correlation by Stephan-Abdelsalam and the thermosyphon boiling correlation by Imura, et al. predict the measured experimental data in the 2.8 mm tube with an error of -30%. A large heat tra...

Flow Boiling Heat Transfer of Binary Mixtures HFO1234yf/R32 in a Smooth Horizontal Tube

HFO1234yf is a promising alternative for automobile air conditioners because of its low GWP of 4 and thermophysical properties similar to those of R134a. However, its performance is inferior to R410A. This makes it difficult to be applied to residential air-conditioners. A mixture of HFO1234yf and R32 is expected to balance both the GWP and COP requirement when applied to residential air-condit...
