Compared to pure components, both binary and ternary mixtures showed lower heat transfer coefficients.This deterioration was more pronounced as heat flux was increased. Experimental data were compared with some empirical and semi-empirical correlations available in literature. For binary mixture, the accuracy of the correlations varied considerably with mixtures and the heat flux. Experimental data for HFC-32/134a/125 were also compared with available correlated equation obtained by Thome. For ternary mixture, the boiling range of binary mixture composed by the pure fluids with the lowest and the medium boiling points, and their concentration difference had important effects on boiling heat transfer coefficients.展开更多

A high speed digital camera was applied to record the bubble behaviors in boiling process. Strong effects of composition on bubble departure diameter, deparatre time, nucleation density were observed, which was attributed to the nature of the activation of the boiling surface and mass diffusion effects. The bubble departure diameter, departure period and nucleation density as functions of composition for binary mixtures R 11-R 113 were presented respectively. From the video images, it can be concluded that evaporation of microlayer is very important to the growth of bubble. It is also observed that there is not any liquid recruited into the microlayer below the bubble.展开更多

This paper introduces an experimental setup designed for boiling demonstration in the graduate-level Heat Transfer course. The pool boiling performance of water under atmospheric pressure of 1.025 bar is investigated by using several structured surfaces at heat fluxes of 28 and 35 kW/m<sup>2</sup>. Surfaces with holes, rectangular grooves, and mushroom fins are manufactured by an NC-controlled vertical milling machine. The heat flux versus excess temperature graph is plotted by using thermocouple measurements of water and base temperatures of the boiling vessel. The separation, rise, and growth of individual vapor bubbles from the surface during boiling were recorded with a digital camera. The results for the plain surface are compared to the Rohsenow correlation. The enhancement of heat transfer coefficient (h) ranged between 15% - 44.5% for all structured surfaces. The highest heat transfer coefficient enhancement is observed between 41% - 56.5% for holed surface-3 (405 holes) compared to the plain surface. The excess temperature dropped around 29% - 34% for holed surface-3 (405 holes) compared to the plain surface. The heat transfer coefficient increases as the spacing between channels or holes decreases. While the bubbles on holed and mushroomed surfaces were spherical, the bubbles on the flat and grooved surfaces were observed as formless. The suggested economical test design could be appropriate to keep students focused and participating in the classroom.展开更多

To estimate the effect of nanoparticles on the CHF, pool boiling CHF values were measured for various volume concentrations of CuO nanofluid and compared with pure water. CHF enhancement of 130% was recorded at 0.2 % by volume of CuO nano-fluids. Surface roughness of the heater surface exposed to three measured heating cycles indicated surface modifications at different volume concentrations of nanofluid. SEM image of the heater surface revealed porous layer build up, which is thought to be the reason for CHF enhancement.展开更多

The fluid is degassed R113 at 0.1 MPa andsubcooled by 26℃ nominally. A thin platinum wire of 60 μm in diameter and 30 mm in length is simultaneouslyused as heater and thermometer. Only the dynamics of the vapor bubbles, particularly the lateral motion and thedeparture of discrete vapor bubbles in nucleate pool boiling are reported and analyzed in the present paper. It'sfound that these distinct behaviors can be explained by the Marangoni convection in the liquid surrounding vaporbubbles. The origin of the Marangoni effect is also discussed.展开更多

The surface geometly of the present tube is similar to that of Turbo-B. Three tubes with different pore size (0.20 mm, 0.23 mm and 0.27 mm) were manufactured and tested using R-11, R-123 and R-134a. The pore size which yields the maximum heat transfer coefficient varied depending on the refrigerant. For R-134a, the maximum heat transfer coefficient was obtained for the tube having 0.27 nun pore size. For R-11 and R- 123, the optimum pore size was 0.23 mm. One novel feature of the present tubes is that their boiling curves do not show a cross-over characteristic, which existing pored tubes do. The connecting gaps of the present tube are believed to serve an additional route for the liquid supply and delay the dry-out of the tunnel. The present tubes yield the heat transfer coefficients approximately equal to those of the existing pored enhanced tubes. At the heat flux 40 kW/m2 and saturation temperature 4.4° C, the heat transfer coefficients of the present tubes are 6.5 times larger for R-11, 6.0 times larger for R-123 and 5.0 times larger for R-134a than that of the smooth tube展开更多

By using the vapor-liquid phase change model of Gong-Cheng and Peng-Robinson equation of state, the effects of structural parameters, including metal foam thickness, porosity, column height and ratio of column width(W) to gap spacing(D) are investigated in details. The results show that hybrid structure performs better than pure columnar structure in pool boiling heat transfer. The hybrid structure accelerates bubble growth by fluid disturbance while metal skeletons prevent the bubble escaping. The optimum ratio of column width to gap spacing decreases with the increase of heat flux and HTC(heat transfer coefficient) can achieve an increase up to 25% when W/D change from 5/3 to 1/3. The increase of column height enhances heat transfer by expanding surface area and providing space for bubble motion. The metal foam thickness and porosity have a little influence on pool boiling heat transfer performance, but they have an important effect on bubble motion in the regime.展开更多

The ...In order to maintain a desirable temperature level of electronic equipment at low pressure, the thermal control performance with pool boiling heat transfer of water was examined based on experimental measurement. The total setup was designed and performed to accomplish the experiment with the pressure range from 4.5 kPa to 20 kPa and the heat flux between 6 kW/m^2 and 20 kW/m^2. The chosen material of the heat surface was alu- minium alloy and the test cavity had the capability of varying the direction for the heat surface from vertical to horizontal directions. Through this study, the steady and transient temperature of the heat surface at different pressures and directions were obtained. Although the temperature non-uniformity of the heat surface from the centre to the edge could reach 10℃ for the aluminium alloy due to the varying pressures, the whole temperature results successfully satisfied with the thermal control requirements for electronic equipment, and the temperature control effect of the vertically oriented direction was better than that of the borizontally oriented direction. Moreover, the behaviour of bubbles generating and detaching from the heat surface was recorded by a high-resolution camera, so as to understand the pool boiling heat transfer mechanism at low-load heat flux. These pictures showed that the bubbles departure diameter becomes larger, and departure frequency was slower at low pressure, in contrast to 1.0 atm.展开更多

To estimate the effect of nanoparticles on the CHF, pool boiling CHF values were measured for various volume concentrations of CuO nanofluid and compared with pure water. CHF enhancement of 130% was recorded at 0.2 % by volume of CuO nano-fluids. Surface roughness of the heater surface exposed to three measured heating cycles indicated surface modifications at different volume concentrations of nanofluid. SEM image of the heater surface revealed porous layer build up, which is thought to be the reason for CHF enhancement.

文摘A space experiment on bubble behavior and heat transfer in subcooled pool boiling phenomenon has been performedutilizing the temperature-controlled pool boiling (TCPB) device both in normal gravity in the laboratoryand in microgravity aboard the 22^(nd) Chinese recoverable satellite. The fluid is degassed R113 at 0.1 MPa andsubcooled by 26℃ nominally. A thin platinum wire of 60 μm in diameter and 30 mm in length is simultaneouslyused as heater and thermometer. Only the dynamics of the vapor bubbles, particularly the lateral motion and thedeparture of discrete vapor bubbles in nucleate pool boiling are reported and analyzed in the present paper. It'sfound that these distinct behaviors can be explained by the Marangoni convection in the liquid surrounding vaporbubbles. The origin of the Marangoni effect is also discussed.

文摘In this study, pool boiling test results are provided for the structured enhanced tubes having pores with connecting gaps. The surface geometly of the present tube is similar to that of Turbo-B. Three tubes with different pore size (0.20 mm, 0.23 mm and 0.27 mm) were manufactured and tested using R-11, R-123 and R-134a. The pore size which yields the maximum heat transfer coefficient varied depending on the refrigerant. For R-134a, the maximum heat transfer coefficient was obtained for the tube having 0.27 nun pore size. For R-11 and R- 123, the optimum pore size was 0.23 mm. One novel feature of the present tubes is that their boiling curves do not show a cross-over characteristic, which existing pored tubes do. The connecting gaps of the present tube are believed to serve an additional route for the liquid supply and delay the dry-out of the tunnel. The present tubes yield the heat transfer coefficients approximately equal to those of the existing pored enhanced tubes. At the heat flux 40 kW/m2 and saturation temperature 4.4° C, the heat transfer coefficients of the present tubes are 6.5 times larger for R-11, 6.0 times larger for R-123 and 5.0 times larger for R-134a than that of the smooth tube

文摘In the present study, pool boiling heat transfer performance and bubble behaviors of hybrid structures with metal foam and square column are investigated by lattice Boltzmann method. By using the vapor-liquid phase change model of Gong-Cheng and Peng-Robinson equation of state, the effects of structural parameters, including metal foam thickness, porosity, column height and ratio of column width(W) to gap spacing(D) are investigated in details. The results show that hybrid structure performs better than pure columnar structure in pool boiling heat transfer. The hybrid structure accelerates bubble growth by fluid disturbance while metal skeletons prevent the bubble escaping. The optimum ratio of column width to gap spacing decreases with the increase of heat flux and HTC(heat transfer coefficient) can achieve an increase up to 25% when W/D change from 5/3 to 1/3. The increase of column height enhances heat transfer by expanding surface area and providing space for bubble motion. The metal foam thickness and porosity have a little influence on pool boiling heat transfer performance, but they have an important effect on bubble motion in the regime.

文摘In order to maintain a desirable temperature level of electronic equipment at low pressure, the thermal control performance with pool boiling heat transfer of water was examined based on experimental measurement. The total setup was designed and performed to accomplish the experiment with the pressure range from 4.5 kPa to 20 kPa and the heat flux between 6 kW/m^2 and 20 kW/m^2. The chosen material of the heat surface was alu- minium alloy and the test cavity had the capability of varying the direction for the heat surface from vertical to horizontal directions. Through this study, the steady and transient temperature of the heat surface at different pressures and directions were obtained. Although the temperature non-uniformity of the heat surface from the centre to the edge could reach 10℃ for the aluminium alloy due to the varying pressures, the whole temperature results successfully satisfied with the thermal control requirements for electronic equipment, and the temperature control effect of the vertically oriented direction was better than that of the borizontally oriented direction. Moreover, the behaviour of bubbles generating and detaching from the heat surface was recorded by a high-resolution camera, so as to understand the pool boiling heat transfer mechanism at low-load heat flux. These pictures showed that the bubbles departure diameter becomes larger, and departure frequency was slower at low pressure, in contrast to 1.0 atm.
文摘A combined physical model of bubble growth is proposed along with a corresponding bubble growth model for binary mixtures on smooth tubes. Using the general model of Wang et al.[1] and the bubble growth model for binary mixtures, an analytical model for nucleate pool boiling heat transfer of binary mixtures on smooth tubes is developed.In addition, nucleate pool boiling heat transfer of pure liquids and binary mixtures on a horizontal smooth tube was studied experimentally. The pure liquids and binary mixtures included water,methanol, ethanol, and their binary mixtures. The analytical models for both pure liquids and binary mixtures are in good agreement with the experimental data.
文摘Direct cooling with inert,dielectric liquids may well become the technique of choice for the thermal manage- ment of future electronic systems.Due to the efficiency of phase-change processes and the simplicity of natural circulation,nucleate pool boiling is of great interest for this application.This paper examines the characteristics of vapor bubbles and nucleate pool boiling of the dielectric liquids.The results provide a theoretical foundation for understanding and interpreting the often complex empirical results reported in the literature.
