A characteristic length scale and a time scale are proposed to describe the dynamic growth and departure process of bubbles. A correlation between bubble departure diameter and bubble growth time is established thereby, and a predication formula for bubble departure diameter is suggested by considering the analogue between nucleate boiling and forced convection. # 1999 Published by Elsevier Sci...
متن کاملHeight effect on nucleation-site activity and size-dependent bubble dynamics in microchannel convective boiling
Forced convection boiling in microchannels is studied experimentally under the uniform heat flux boundary condition. Several microchannel heat sinks with integrated temperature sensors, spanning two orders of magnitude in height 5–500 μm, have been fabricated with designed nucleation sites on the bottom surfaces. The microchannels are capped by a glass wafer to monitor bubble activity using vid...

متن کاملMechanistic Prediction of Nucleate Boiling Heat Transfer–Achievable or a Hopeless Task?
Over the last half of the twentieth century, a number of purely empirical and mechanismbased correlations have been developed for pool nucleate boiling. Empirical correlations differ from each other substantially with respect to the functional dependence of heat flux on fluid and surface properties, including gravity. The mechanism-based correlations require knowledge of the number density of a...
متن کاملUse of Synchronized , Infrared Thermometry and High - Speed Video for Generation of Space - and Time - Resolved High - Quality Data on Boiling Heat Transfer
Boiling heat transfer is a key thermal limit in nuclear systems. However, for decades, its modeling has relied on speculative hypotheses and a good dose of empiricism. As researchers now start to develop more mechanistic models, the need for high-quality high-resolution data on the bubble nucleation and growth cycle is increasing. Specifically, nucleation site density, bubble departure diameter...
