In this paper, the experimental results of dryout during flow boiling in minichannels are reported and analysed. Experiments were carried out in vertical circular minichannels with internal diameters of 1.22 mm and 1.70 mm and a fixed heated length of 220 mm. R134a was used as working fluid. Mass flux was varied from 50 kg/m2 s to 600 kg/m2 s and experiments were performed at two different system pressures corresponding to saturation temperatures of 27 °C and 32 °C. Experimental results show that the dryout heat flux increases with mass flux and decreases with tube diameter while system pressure has no clear effect for the range of experimental conditions covered. Finally, the prediction capabilities of the well known critical heat flux (CHF) correlations are also tested. 相似文献

An experimental study was carried out to investigate the R134a dry-out critical heat flux (CHF) characteristics in a horizontal helically-coiled tube. The test section was heated uniformly by DC high-power source, and its geometrical parameters are the outer diameter of 10 mm, inner diameter of 8.4 mm, coil diameter of 300 mm, helical pitch of 75 mm and valid heated length of 1.89 m. The experimental parameters are the outlet pressures of 0.30–0.95 MPa, mass fluxes of 60–500 kg m?2 s?1, inlet qualities of ?0.36–0.35 and heat fluxes of 7.0 × 103–5.0 × 104 W m?2. A method based on Agilent BenchLink Data Logger Pro was developed to determine the occurrence of CHF with a total of 68 T-type thermocouples (0.2 mm) set along the tube for accurate temperature measurement. The characteristics of wall temperatures and the parametric effect on dry-out CHF showed that temperature would jump abruptly at the point of CHF, which usually started to form at the front and offside (270° and 90°) of the outlet cross-section. The CHF values decrease nearly linearly with increasing inlet qualities, while they decrease more acutely with increasing critical qualities, especially under larger mass flux conditions. The mass flux has a positive effect on CHF enhancement, but the pressure has negative one. A new dimensionless correlation was developed to estimate dry-out CHF of R134a flow boiling in horizontal helically-coiled tubes under current experimental conditions and compared to calculated results from Bowring and Shah correlations. 相似文献

The pressure-drop characteristics during flow boiling in a single rectangular micro-channel with hydraulic diameter of 0.68 mm are presented. In the present study, pressure drop was studied at heat flux range of 7.63–49.46 kW/m2, mass flux range of 600–1400 kg/m2 s, and saturation temperature of 23, 27 and 31 °C. Experimental results indicated that the total pressure was dominated by frictional pressure drop. The increase of mass flux also increased the frictional pressure gradient, whereas the increase of saturation temperature reduced the frictional pressure gradient. In addition, heat flux also had an insignificant effect on the frictional the pressure gradient. A new correlation was also proposed for effective design of micro-channel heat exchanger. 相似文献

The paper presents an experimental study of the flow-boiling heat-transfer characteristics of R12 and R134a in the annulus of a horizontal enhanced-surface-tubing evaporator. The test section has an inner-tube bore diameter of 17.5 mm, an envelope diameter of 28.6 mm and an outer smooth tube of 32.3 mm inside diameter. The ranges of heat flux and mass velocity covered in the tests were 5–25 kW/m2 and 180–290 kg/m2/s, respectively, at a pressure of 365 kPa. In order to establish the flow regime conditions at the inlet to the test section, the test rig allows for the visualization of refrigerant flow through the preheater. The experiments show two regions of heat transfer: a nucleate boiling region where the heat transfer depends mainly on heat flux, and a forced convective region where the heat transfer depends only on the refrigerant flow rate. 相似文献

An investigation of flow boiling with two arrays of microjets with R134a was conducted. Velocities of 4 and 7 m/s, subcoolings of 10, 20, and 30 °C, and jet-to-heater area ratios of 8.9% and 21% were employed. Lower subcoolings and lower velocities were found to enhance boiling and reduce the onset of nucleate boiling heat flux. The area ratio did not influence the onset of nucleate boiling but did increase the boiling enhancement of the heat transfer coefficient. Also, a previous hypothesis that nitrogen dissolved into the working fluid prevented premature temperature excursion was tested with controlled mixtures and was not substantiated. 相似文献

This paper presents effects of heating directions on heat transfer performance of R134a flow boiling in micro-channel heat sink.The heat sink has 30 parallel rectangular channels with cross-sectional dimensions of 500μm width 500μm depth and 30mm length.The experimental operation condition ranges of the heat flux and the mass flux were 13.48 to 82.25 W/cm2 and 373.3 to 1244.4 kg/m2s respectively.The vapor quality ranged from 0.07 to 0.93.The heat transfer coefficients of top heating and bottom heating both were up to 25 kW/m2 K.Two dominate transfer mechanisms of nucleate boiling and convection boiling were observed according to boiling curves.The experimental results indicated that the heat transfer coefficient of bottom heating was 13.9% higher than top heating in low heat flux,while in high heat flux,the heat transfer coefficient of bottom heating was 9.9%.higher than the top heating,because bubbles were harder to divorce the heating wall.And a modified correlation was provided to predict heat transfer of top heating. 相似文献

Analysis of various existing correlations including a three-zone evaporation model is made using a comparison with recent experimental results obtained in this study. Flow boiling heat transfer experiments were conducted with two stainless steel tubes of internal diameter 4.26 mm and 2.01 mm. The working fluid was R134a and parameters were varied in the range: mass flux 100–500 kg/m2s; pressure 8–12 bar; quality up to 0.9; heat flux 13–150 kW/m2. The local heat transfer coefficient was independent of vapour quality when this was less than about 40–50% in the 4.26 mm tube and 20–30% in the 2.01 mm tube. Local transient dryout was deduced when the quality was above these values. Furthermore, at high heat flux values the heat transfer coefficient decreased with vapour quality for the entire quality range indicating early occurrence of dryout.Existing correlations, which are based on large tube boiling processes, do not predict the present small diameter data to a satisfactory degree. A better agreement is observed with the recent, state-of-the-art, three-zone evaporation model. However, the model does not predict the effect of diameter and the partial dryout. Nevertheless, the observation suggests that the flow pattern based modelling approach performs at least as well as empirical correlations that are based on macroscale modelling. Aspects of the model that need further consideration are also proposed in this study. 相似文献

The results of experimental investigations of heat transfer during the flow of R134a in a minichannel are presented here. The experimental investigations were conducted using a minichannel with a total length of 500 mm and 1.68 mm internal diameter. The heated length of the minichannel was 200 mm, the total mass flow rate of the refrigerant (wρ) = 200–450 kg/m2 s, the inlet subcooling ΔTs = 5–15 K, and the heat flux density q = 1.7–60.3 kW/m2. The results of experimental investigations are presented as a boiling curve. The phenomenon known as the zero boiling crisis and the influence of the flashing phenomenon on the boiling curve show the importance of these elements on heat transfer in single- and two-phase systems. 相似文献

Adiabatic two-phase flow of refrigerant R-134a in a hairpin was studied. The hairpin consists of a smooth tube with an inner diameter of 8 mm and with a bend radius of 11 mm. Because of the forces exerted on the flow in the bend, the flow needs to redevelop downstream of the U-bend. The effects of this phenomenon on the pressure drop are studied and linked to visual observations of the flow. Pressure drop and videos of the flow behaviour are recorded in the straight sections upstream and downstream of the bend. These are then compared to the flow and pressure drop for developed flow. The pressure drop downstream of the bend was consistently higher than that for developed flow. It exceeded the pressure drop for developed flow by an average of 30% for all data points. Each video of the flow behaviour was reduced to a single image by calculating the standard deviation of the time signal of each pixel. The standard deviation profiles were compared in order to quantitatively evaluate the change of the flow behaviour. The flow recovery downstream of the bend stretches out over more than 30 tube diameters. 相似文献

A detailed comparison of flow boiling heat transfer results in a stainless steel tube of 1.1 mm internal diameter with results of a three-zone flow model are presented in this paper. The working fluid is R134a. Other parameters were varied in the range: mass flux 100–600 kg/m2 s; heat flux 16–150 kW/m2 and pressure 6–12 bar.The experimental results demonstrate that the heat transfer coefficient increases with heat flux and system pressure, but does not change with vapour quality when the quality is less than about 50% for low heat and mass flux values. The effect of mass flux is observed to be insignificant. For vapour quality values greater than 50% and at high heat flux values, the heat transfer coefficient does not depend on heat flux and decreases with vapour quality. This could be caused by dryout. The three-zone evaporation model predicts the experimental results fairly well, especially at relatively low pressure. However, the dryout region observed at high quality is highly over-predicted by the model. The sensitivity of the performance of the model to the three optimised parameters (confined bubble frequency, initial film thickness and end film thickness) and some preliminary investigation relating the critical film thickness for dryout to measured tube roughness are also discussed. 相似文献

Experiments are conducted here to investigate how the channel size affects the saturated flow boiling heat transfer and associated bubble characteristics of refrigerant R-134a in a horizontal narrow annular duct. The gap of the duct is fixed at 1.0 and 2.0 mm in this study. The measured heat transfer data indicate that the saturated flow boiling heat transfer coefficient increases with a decrease in the gap of the duct. Besides, raising the imposed heat flux can cause a significant increase in the boiling heat transfer coefficients. However, the effects of the refrigerant mass flux and saturated temperature on the boiling heat transfer coefficient are milder. The results from the flow visualization show that the mean diameter of the bubbles departing from the heating surface decreases slightly at increasing R-134a mass flux. Moreover, the bubble departure frequency increases at reducing duct size mainly due to the rising shear stress of the liquid flow, and at a high imposed heat flux many bubbles generated from the cavities in the heating surface tend to merge together to form big bubbles. Correlation for the present saturated flow boiling heat transfer data of R-134a in the narrow annular duct is proposed. Additionally, data for some quantitative bubble characteristics such as the mean bubble departure diameter and frequency and the active nucleation site density are also correlated. 相似文献

Experiments are conducted here to investigate how the channel size affects the subcooled flow boiling heat transfer and associated bubble characteristics of refrigerant R-134a in a horizontal narrow annular duct. The gap of the duct is fixed at 1.0 and 2.0 mm in this study. From the measured boiling curves, the temperature undershoot at ONB is found to be relatively significant for the subcooled flow boiling of R-134a in the duct. The R-134a subcooled flow boiling heat transfer coefficient increases with a reduction in the gap size, but decreases with an increase in the inlet liquid subcooling. Besides, raising the imposed heat flux can cause a substantial increase in the subcooled boiling heat transfer coefficient. However, the effects of the refrigerant mass flux and saturated temperature on the boiling heat transfer coefficient are small in the narrow duct. Visualization of the subcooled flow boiling processes reveals that the bubbles are suppressed to become smaller and less dense by raising the refrigerant mass flux and inlet subcooling. Moreover, raising the imposed heat flux significantly increases the bubble population, coalescence and departure frequency. The increase in the bubble departure frequency by reducing the duct size is due to the rising wall shear stress of the liquid flow, and at a high imposed heat flux many bubbles generated from the cavities on the heating surface tend to merge together to form big bubbles. Correlation for the present subcooled flow boiling heat transfer data of R-134a in the narrow annular duct is proposed. Additionally, the present data for some quantitative bubble characteristics such as the mean bubble departure diameter and frequency and the active nucleation site density are also correlated. 相似文献

Flow boiling heat transfer of R-134a refrigerant in a circular mini-channel, 600 mm long with a diameter of 1.75 mm, is investigated experimentally in this study. The test section is a stainless steel tube placed horizontally. Flow pattern and heat transfer coefficient data are obtained for a mass flux range of 200–1000 kg/m2 s, a heat flux range of 1–83 kW/m2 and saturation pressures of 8, 10, and 13 bar. Five different flow patterns including slug flow, throat-annular flow, churn flow, annular flow and annular-rivulet flow are observed and the heat transfer coefficient data for different flow patterns are presented. The heat transfer coefficient increases with increasing heat flux but is mostly independent of mass flux and vapour quality. In addition, it is indicated from the experiments that the higher the saturation pressure, the lower is the heat transfer coefficient. Comparisons of the present data with the existing correlations are also presented. 相似文献

An experimental investigation has been carried out to study the effect of twisted tape inserts on heat transfer enhancement and pressure drop in a horizontal tube during swirl flow boiling of R-134a. The test-evaporator was an electrically heated horizontal copper tube and twisted tapes with different twist ratios of 6, 9, 12 and 15 were inserted one by one. The data were acquired at the refrigerant mass velocities of 54, 86, 114 and 136 kg/s m2. The twisted tape inserts increases the boiling heat transfer coefficients and the pressure drop across the test-evaporator. An empirical correlation has also been developed to predict the swirl flow pressure drop in the test-evaporator. 相似文献

Subcooled flow boiling heat transfer of R-134a and the associated bubble characteristics in a vertical plate heat exchanger 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Subcooled flow boiling heat transfer characteristics of refrigerant R-134a in a vertical plate heat exchanger (PHE) are investigated experimentally in this study. Besides, the associated bubble characteristics are also inspected by visualizing the boiling flow in the vertical PHE. In the experiment two vertical counterflow channels are formed in the exchanger by three plates of commercial geometry with a corrugated sinusoidal shape of a chevron angle of 60°. Upflow boiling of subcooled refrigerant R-134a in one channel receives heat from the downflow of hot water in the other channel. The effects of the boiling heat flux, refrigerant mass flux, system pressure and inlet subcooling of R-134a on the subcooled boiling heat transfer are explored in detail. The results are presented in terms of the boiling curves and heat transfer coefficients. The measured data showed that the slopes of the boiling curves change significantly during the onset of nucleate boiling (ONB) especially at low mass flux and high saturation temperature. Besides, the boiling hysteresis is significant at a low refrigerant mass flux. The subcooled boiling heat transfer coefficient is affected noticeably by the mass flux of the refrigerant. However, increases in the inlet subcooling and saturation temperature only show slight improvement on the boiling heat transfer coefficient.The photos from the flow visualization reveal that at higher imposed heat flux the plate surface is covered with more bubbles and the bubble generation frequency is substantially higher, and the bubbles tend to coalesce to form big bubbles. But these big bubbles are prone to breaking up into small bubbles as they move over the corrugated plate, producing strong agitating flow motion and hence enhancing the boiling heat transfer. We also note that the bubbles nucleated from the plate are suppressed to a larger degree for higher inlet subcooling and mass flux. Finally, empirical correlations are proposed to correlate the present data for the heat transfer coefficient and the bubble departure diameter in terms of boiling, Froude, Reynolds and Jakob numbers. 相似文献

An experiment is conducted here to investigate the effects of the imposed time periodic refrigerant flow rate oscillation in the form of nearly a triangular wave on refrigeriant R-134a flow boiling heat transfer and associated bubble characteristics in a horizontal narrow annular duct with the duct gap fixed at 2.0 mm. The results indicate that when the imposed heat flux is close to that for the onset of stable flow boiling, intermittent flow boiling appears in which nucleate boiling on the heated surface does not exist in an entire periodic cycle. At somewhat higher heat flux persistent boiling prevails. Besides, the refrigerant flow rate oscillation only slightly affects the time-average boiling curves and heat transfer coefficients. Moreover, the heated wall temperature, bubble departure diameter and frequency, and active nucleation site density are found to oscillate periodically in time as well and at the same frequency as the imposed mass flux oscillation. Furthermore, in the persistent boiling the resulting heated wall temperature oscillation is stronger for a longer period and a larger amplitude of the mass flux oscillation. And for a larger amplitude of the mass flux oscillation, stronger temporal oscillations in the bubble characteristics are noted. The effects of the mass flux oscillation on the size of the departing bubble and active nucleation site density dominate over the bubble departure frequency, causing the heated wall temperature to decrease and heat transfer coefficient to increase at reducing mass flux in the flow boiling, opposing to that in the single-phase flow. But they are only mildly affected by the period of the mass flux oscillation. However, a short time lag in the wall temperature oscillation is also noted. Finally, a flow regime map is provided to delineate the boundaries separating different boiling regimes for the R-134a flow boiling in the annular duct. 相似文献

Saturated pool film boiling over a flat horizontal surface is investigated numerically for water and refrigerant R134a at near-critical conditions for wall superheats (ΔTSup) of 2?K, 5?K, 8?K, 10?K, 15?K, and 20?K. The flow is considered to be laminar and incompressible. The governing equations are solved using a finite volume method with a collocated grid arrangement. For capturing the interface in two-phase boiling flows, a Coupled Level Set and Volume of Fluid (CLSVOF) with a multidirectional advection algorithm is used. Both single-mode and multimode boiling models are used for the numerical investigation to understand the effect of computational domain sizes on flow and heat transfer characteristics. In the case of water, the evolution of interface morphology shows the formation of a discrete periodic bubble release cycle occurring at lower Jacob numbers, Jav?≤?10.2(ΔTSup?≤?8?K), and the generation of jets of stable vapor film columns occurs at higher Jav?≥?12.7 (ΔTSup?≥?10?K). In the case of R134a, for all the Jav values considered in this study (0.163?≤?Jav?≤?1.63), the formation of a discrete periodic bubble release is observed. The results show that multimode boiling model should be used to understand the flow characteristics better. The magnitude of average Nusselt number obtained from the multimode film boiling model is lower than that of the single-mode film boiling model. The Nusselt numbers obtained from the present numerical studies are also compared with the available semiempirical correlations. 相似文献
