Influences of Interfacial Shear in Turbulent Film Boiling on a Horizontal Tube with External Flowing Liquid
نویسنده
چکیده
The paper presents a theoretical study about turbulent film boiling on a horizontal tube with external flowing liquid. The high velocity flowing liquid is determined by potential flow theory. By using Colburn analogy, the present paper successfully addresses a new model to predict the vaporliquid interfacial shear, applies the interfacial shear into the forced balance equation and then combines the forced balance equation, the energy equation and thermal energy balance equation. At last, both the film thickness and Nusselt number can be obtained. Besides, the present analysis also includes radiation effects, temperature ratio and eddy diffusivity. Finally, a comparison between the results of the present study and those reported in previous theoretical and experimental studies is provided.

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, ...

متن کاملInfluence of Radiation on Product Yields in a Film Boiling Reactor
Introduction The film boiling reactor (FIBOR) is analyzed to show the influence of radiation across the vapor film on product yields. The geometry is that of a horizontal, catalyst-coated, tube suspended in a pool of saturated methanol at atmospheric pressure. The vapor film surrounding the heated tube is the reacting volume and surface reactions are treated with an Arrhenius form of the reacti...
