The analysis of Rivers and McFadden for film boiling heat transfer from horizontal cylinders immersed in Helium II is briefly reviewed and results are recapitulated. Experimental measurements of film boiling heat transfer are made for horizontal cylinders of 0.145 cm and 0.245 cm dia immersed in Helium II baths at 1.78, 1.96, and 2.1 K at wall heat fluxes up to 2.84 w/cm2. The nondimensionalized experimental results are compared with the accepted correlations of Bromley and Breen and West-water to demonstrate the inability of the usual film boiling correlations to predict film boiling in Helium II. The nondimensionalized experimental results are compared with the predictions of the Rivers and McFadden analysis which considers Helium II properties, and the results of the analysis are substantiated.

Experimental data of pool film boiling heat transfer from horizontal cylinders in various liquids such as water, ethanol, isopropanol, Freon-113, Freon-11, liquid nitrogen, and liquid argon for wide ranges of system pressure, liquid subcooling, surface superheat and cylinder diameter are reported. These experimental data are compared with a rigorous numerical solution and an approximate analytical solution derived from a theoretical model based on laminar boundary layer theory for pool film boiling heat transfer from horizontal cylinders including the effects of liquid subcooling and radiation from the cylinder. A new correlation was developed by slightly modifying the approximate analytical solution to agree better with the experimental data. The values calculated from the correlation agree with the authors’ data within ± 10 percent, and also with other researchers’ data for various liquids including those with large radiation effects, though these other data were obtained mainly under saturated conditions at atmospheric pressure.

The author proposed a magnetohydrodynamic correction from a horizontal surface in liquid-metal in the presence of an ideal magnetic field. The theoretical correction agrees qualitatively with the available experimental measurements made on mercury in a high magnetic field where transition/film boiling is expected.

Flow Velocities

Forced convection film boiling heat transfer on a horizontal cylinder in saturated water and Freon-113 flowing upward perpendicular to the cylinder was measured for the flow velocities ranging from zero to 1 m/s at the system pressures ranging from 100 to 500 kPa: the platinum cylinders with the diameters ranging from 0.7 to 5 mm were used as the test cylinder heaters. The existing correlation for forced convection film boiling heat transfer given by Bromley et al. could not well describe the experimental data obtained, especially those for the higher pressures. The forced convection film boiling heat transfer correlation including the radiation contribution from the cylinders with various diameters for saturation conditions was developed based on forced convection two-phase laminar boundary layer film boiling model and the experimental data obtained. The experimental data agreed with the corresponding values derived from the correlation within ±15% for the flow velocities below 0.7 m/s, and within −30% to +15% for higher flow velocities. It was confirmed that the experimental data obtained by Bromley et al. for the horizontal carbon cylinders with the diameters ranging from 9.83 to 16.2 mm and with the significant radiation effect from the cylinder surfaces in various liquids for the various flow velocities up to 4.4 m/s at an atmospheric pressure agreed with the corresponding values derived from the new correlation within ±20%.
