Abstract: | A general correlation for heat transfer during dispersed flow film boiling is presented which is applicable to horizontal and vertical tubes. It is based on the two-step model. It has been verified with data for 10 fluids in horizontal and vertical upflow. The fluids include refrigerants, hydrocarbons, cryogens, CO2 and water. The range of data included diameters from 0.98 to 25.0 mm, reduced pressures from 0.0046 to 0.99, mass flux from 3.7 to 5176 kg m−2 s−1, and qualities from 0.1 to 2.96. The 1481 data points from 38 sources are predicted with mean absolute deviation of 19.4%. Several other correlations are also compared to the same data and found to have much larger deviations. |
