Three-dimensional numerical simulations of the atmospheric saturated pool boiling are performed with the aim of predicting the critical heat flux. The two-phase mixture in pool boiling is described with the transient two-fluid model. The transient heat conduction in the horizontal heated wall is also solved. Dynamics of vapor generation on the heated wall is modeled through the density of nucleation sites and the bubble residence time on the wall. The heater’s surface is divided into zones, which number per unit area equals the density of nucleation sites, while the location of nucleation site within each zone is determined by a random function. The results show a replenishment of the heater’s surface with water and surface wetting for lower heat fluxes, while heater’s surface dry-out is predicted at critical heat flux values. Also, it is shown that the decrease of nucleation site density leads to the reduction of critical heat flux values. Obtained results of critical heat flux are in good agreement with available measured data. The presented approach is original regarding both the application of the two-fluid two-phase model for the prediction of boiling crisis in pool boiling and the defined boundary conditions at the heated wall surface.  相似文献

It has been considered that dry-out occurs easily in boiling heat transfer for a small channel, a mini- or microchannel, because the channel was easily filled with coalescing vapor bubbles. In the present study, the experiments of subcooled flow boiling of water were performed under atmospheric conditions for a horizontal rectangular channel for which the size is 1 mm height and 1 mm width, with a flat heating surface of 10 mm length and 1 mm width placed on the bottom of the channel. The heating surface has a top of copper heating block and is heated by ceramic heaters. In the high heat flux region of nucleate boiling, about 70–80% of the heating surface was covered with a large coalescing bubble and the boiling reached critical heat flux as observed by high-speed video. In the beginning of transition boiling, coalescing bubbles were collapsed to many fine bubbles and microbubble emission boiling was observed at liquid subcooling higher than 30 K. The maximum heat flux obtained was 8 MW/m2 (800 W/cm2) at liquid subcooling of higher than 40 K and a liquid velocity of 0.5 m/s. However, the surface temperature was very much higher than that of a centimeter-scale channel. The high-speed video photographs indicated that microbubble emission boiling occurs in the deep transition boiling region.  相似文献

The subject of the present study is to relate the boiling heat transfer process with experimentally observed bubble behaviour during subcooled flow boiling of water in a vertical heated annulus. It presents an attempt to explain the transition from partial to fully developed flow boiling with regard to bubble growth rates and to the time that individual bubbles spend attached to the heater surface.Within the partial nucleate boiling region bubbles barely change in size and shape while sliding a long distance on the heater surface. Such behaviour indicates an important contribution of the microlayer evaporation mechanism in the overall heat transfer rate. With increasing heat flux, or reducing flow rate at constant heat flux, bubble growth rates increase significantly. Bubbles grow while sliding, detach from the heater, and subsequently collapse in the bulk fluid within a distance of 1-2 diameters parallel to the heater surface. This confirms that bubble agitation becomes a leading heat transfer mode with increasing heat flux. There is however, a sharp transition between the two observed bubble behaviours that can be taken as the transition from partial to fully developed boiling. Hence, this information is used to develop a new model for the transition from partial to fully developed subcooled flow boiling.  相似文献

The pool boiling characteristics of dilute dispersions of alumina nanoparticles in water were studied. Consistent with other nanofluid studies, it was found that a significant enhancement in critical heat flux (CHF) can be achieved at modest nanoparticle concentrations (<0.1% by volume). During experimentation and subsequent inspection, formation of a porous layer of nanoparticles on the heater surface occurred during nucleate boiling. This layer significantly changes surface texture of the heater wire surface which could be the reason for improvement in the CHF value. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

We have developed a stabilizer of the temperature of a thermoresistor wire electric heater based on a PID controller. Using this stabilizer, we investigated heat exchange of subcooled water in pool boiling. We found that on stabilization of the heater temperature up to that of the subcooled water, transition from convection to the regime of bubble boiling and vice versa occurs spontaneously and is accompanied by a jumpwise change in heat transfer. It is shown that in the regime of stable bubble boiling, the law of heat transfer is independent of the liquid temperature and the heater diameter and that the maximum heat loading may attain 50 MW/m2, which is much above the values cited earlier in the literature. Based on the results obtained, a mechanism of implementation of bubble boiling for the regimes of a constant heat flux and a constant temperature is suggested. The assumption is made that the regime of heterogeneous vapour generation is possible only in the case of the heater constant temperature. In the regime of a stabilized heat flux on the heater, the spatially inhomogeneous regime of heat transfer is established. This regime represents a spatially distributed combination of three regimes: convective heat transfer, homogeneous boiling, manifesting itself in periodic boiling-up of overheated layers of the liquid near the surface and an unstable regime of heterogeneous vapour generation.  相似文献

Bubble dynamics in saturated pool boiling of R-123 with and without an applied electric field have been investigated using a novel, flat, transparent heated surface. This method allows viewing and measurement of bubble dynamics from the entire heater surface without interference from the fluid or other bubbles. The data have been used to quantify the effect of an electric field on the latent heat contribution to the total heat flux and to demonstrate the effectiveness of this experimental technique. For a given heat flux, the application of the electric field reduces the surface temperature, thereby suppressing boiling and reducing the latent heat contribution.  相似文献

Wall boiling and bubble population balance equations combined with a two-fluid model are employed to predict boiling two-phase flow in an inclined channel with a downward-facing heated upper wall. In order to observe the boiling behavior on the inclined, downward-facing heated wall, a visualization experiment was carried out with a 100 mm × 100 mm of the cross section, 1.2-m-long rectangular channel, inclined by 10° from the horizontal plane. The size of the heated wall was 50 mm by 750 mm and the heat flux was provided by Joule heating using DC electrical current. The temperatures of the heater surface were measured and used in calculating heat transfer coefficients. The wall superheat for 100 kW/m2 heat flux and 200 kg/m2s mass flux ranged between 9.3°C and 15.1°C. High-speed video images showed that bubbles were sliding, continuing to grow, and combining with small bubbles growing at their nucleation sites in the downstream. Then large bubbles coalesced together when the bubbles grew too large to have a space between them. Finally, an elongated slug bubble formed and it continued to slide along the heated wall. For these circumstances of wall boiling and two-phase flow in the inclined channel, the existing wall boiling model encompassing bubble growth and sliding was improved by considering the influence of large bubbles near the heated wall and liquid film evaporation under the large slug bubbles. With this improved model, the predicted wall superheat agreed well with the experimental data, while the RPI model largely overpredicted the wall superheat.  相似文献

Experiments were carried out to investigate the pool boiling of alumina‐water nanofluid at 0.1 g/l to 0.5 g/l of distilled water, and the nucleate pool boiling heat transfer of pure water and nanofluid at different mass concentrations were compared at and above the atmospheric pressure. At atmospheric pressure, different concentrations of nanofluids display different degrees of deterioration in boiling heat transfer. The effect of pressure and concentration of nanoparticles revealed significant enhancement in heat flux and deterioration in pool boiling. The heat transfer coefficient of 0.5 g/l alumina‐water nanofluid was compared with pure water and clearly indicates deterioration. At all pressures the heat transfer coefficients of the nanofluid were lower than those of pure water. Experimental observation revealed particles coating over the heater surface and subsequent SEM inspection of the heater surface showed nanoparticles coating on the surface forming a porous layer. To substantiate the nanoparticle deposition and its effect on heat flux, investigation was done by measuring the surface roughness of the heater surface before and after the experiment. While SEM images of the heater surface revealed nanoparticle deposition, surface roughness of the heater surface confirmed it. Based on the experimental investigations it can be concluded that an optimum thickness of nanoparticles coating favors an increase in heat flux. Higher surface temperature due to the presence of nanoparticles coating results in the deterioration of boiling heat transfer. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

This paper deals with a study of enhanced critical heat flux (CHF) and burnout heat flux (BHF) in pool boiling of water with suspended silica nanoparticles using Nichrome wires and ribbons. Previously the current authors and other researchers have reported three-digit percentage increase in critical heat flux in silica nanofluids. This study investigates the effect of various heater surface dimensions, cross-sectional shapes as well as surface modifications on pool boiling heat transfer characteristics of water and water-based nanofluids. Our data suggest that the CHF and BHF decrease as heater surface area increases. For concentrations from 0.1 vol% to 2 vol%, the deposition of the particles on the wire allows high heat transfer through inter-agglomerate pores, resulting in a nearly 3-fold increase in burnout heat flux at very low concentrations. The nanoparticle deposition plays a major role through variation in porosity. The CHF enhancement is non-monotonic with respect to concentration. As the concentration is increased, the CHF and BHF decrease prior to increasing again at higher concentrations. Results show a maximum of 270% CHF enhancement for ribbon-type heaters. The surface morphology of the heater was investigated using SEM and EDS analyses, and it was inferred that the 2 vol% concentration deposition coating had higher porosity and rate of deposition compared with 0.2 vol% case.  相似文献

Surface tension of ethanol/water mixtures is measured over the whole ethanol fraction range and the effect of the surface-active agent on surface tension is also measured in the mixtures, in order to gain basic data related to enhancement of the heat transfer coefficient in water and the mixtures. The boiling heat transfer coefficient, the onset of boiling and the critical heat flux in water and ethanol/water mixtures, with and without the surface-active agent, have been measured on a horizontal fine heated wire at a pressure of 0.1 MPa. The experiment was carried out in the whole range of the ethanol fraction and in a surfactant concentration of 0-5000 ppm. The experiment shows that the coefficients were enhanced in a lower ethanol fraction (C ? 0.5) and in low heat flux which is slightly higher than heat flux at the onset of boiling. It is also found that the enhancement due to the surfactant disappears over 1000 ppm. Finally, we clarify that depression of the surface tension by the surfactant remarkably enhances the heat transfer coefficients in the nucleate pool boiling.  相似文献
