Nucleate Boiling Heat Transfer

Liquid jet impingement is a very effective way of cooling of simple and complicated geometry objects. The attainable cooling rate is radically enhanced when using liquids as coolant due to the possibility of having boiling to occur during the impingement process. Bubble activity on the surface and the resulted mixing with the fluid bulk produces an additional factor of enhancement which at some levels of surface temperature dominates other convective mechanism due to the coolant flow perpendicular or parallel to the surface. The efficient nucleate boiling heat transfer regime can be divided into: partial nucleate boiling and fully developed nucleate boiling. The heat transfer capacity of each and the range of surface temperature over which each of these two boiling regimes up to the critical heat flux (CHF) are experimentally investigated in this research for different coolant temperature and velocity. For this purpose, single planar jet is used to provide the cooling medium of a flat surface that is being heated steadily. The boiling surface temperature was thus controlled by a feed back computer program to allow for steady state operation. So, at each level of boiling surface temperature observation of boiling mode and heat transfer mechanisms was elongated and verified. The experiments were conducted using degassed water jet velocity range between 0.75 and 1.7 m/s and degree of sub-cooling range from 10 to 28 °C at atmospheric pressure. The variation of the heat flux with those factors at different surface superheat up to the CHF point is presented. A physical interpretation is introduced to explain the effects of the input parameters on the heat transfer changes in these regimes.

Superhydrophilic Surface

The nucleate boiling heat transfer characteristics of a round water jet impingement in a flat stagnation zone on the superhydrophilic surface were experimentally investigated. The superhydrophilic heat transfer surface was formed by a TiO2 coating process. The experimental results were compared with those on the common metal surface. In particular, the quantificational effects of the flow conditions, heating conditions, and the coating methods on the critical heat flux (CHF) were systemically investigated. The experimental data showed that the nucleate boiling heat transfer characteristics on the superhydrophilic surface are significantly different from those on the common metal surface. The CHF of boiling on the superhydrophilic surface is greatly increased by decreasing of the solid-liquid contact angle.

Nucleate Boiling Heat Transfer

Pool nucleate boiling heat transfer experiments were performed for water at 0.101 MPa to examine the elementary process of the nucleate boiling. Heat transfer surface was made from a copper printed circuit board. Direct current was supplied to heat it up. The Bakelite plate of the backside of a copper layer was taken off at the center portion of the heat transfer surface. The instantaneous variation of the backside temperature of the heat transfer surface was measured with an infrared radiation camera. Bubble behavior was recorded with a high speed video camera. In the isolated bubble region, surface temperature was uniform during waiting time. When boiling bubble generation started, a large dip in the surface temperature was formed under the bubble. After the bubble left from the heat transfer surface, the surface temperature returned to former uniform temperature distribution. Surface temperature was not affected by the bubble generation beyond 1.6 mm from the center of the bubble. In the isolated bubble region, a convection term was approximately 80 % in total heat transfer rate. The importance of the three-phase interface line in the heat transfer should be checked carefully. In the intermediate and high heat flux region, the variation of surface temperature and heat flux were small. Rather those were close to their average values even at critical heat flux condition. It seemed that the large part of the heat transfer surface was covered with water even at the critical heat flux condition. The heat flux at the area that appeared to be the three-phase contact line was not so high and close to the average heat flux.

Nucleate Boiling Heat Transfer

Pool nucleate boiling heat transfer experiments of the 3.5 - 10wt% NaCl solution, the real seawater and the 3.5 - 10wt% artificial seawater solution as well as distilled water for the basis of comparison were performed to examine the effect of salts on boiling heat transfer. Seawater was injected into the reactor cores in the accident at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station of Tokyo Electric Power Company. This study intended to provide base data to consider reactor core cooling by seawater. Boiling curves of the 3.5 - 10wt% NaCl solution, the real seawater and the 3.5 - 10wt% artificial seawater solutions as well as distilled water were well predicted with the Rohsenow pool nucleate boiling heat transfer correlation although the curves were a little shifted to the higher wall superheat region. The formation of secondary coalescent large bubble was suppressed in the experiments of the NaCl solutions, real seawater and the artificial seawater solutions, and small primary bubbles detached directly from the heat transfer surface. Sea salt deposition was observed only in the experiments of the 7.0wt% and 10wt% artificial seawater solutions. The deposited salt was calcium sulfate. Slow heat transfer surface temperature excursion occurred in the experiments of the 7.0wt% and 10wt% artificial seawater solutions after the heat flux was raised to 600 kW/m2 and 120 kW/m2, respectively. The critical heat flux of the 7.0wt% and 10wt% artificial seawater solutions were 600 kW/m2 and 120 kW/m2, respectively if the occurrence of the slow heat transfer surface temperature excursion was defined as the critical heat flux condition. The heat transfer surface temperature excursion might be caused by the growth of the deposited salt layer.

Nucleate Boiling Heat Transfer

Boiling heat transfer (BHT) and critical heat flux (CHF) performance were experimentally studied for saturated pool boiling of water-based nanofluids. In present experimental works, copper heaters of 20 mm diameter with titanium-oxide (TiO2) nanocoated surface were produced in pool boiling of nanofluid. Experiments were performed in both upward and downward facing nanofluid coated heater surface. TiO2 nanoparticle was used with concentration ranging from 0.004 until 0.4 kg/m3 and boiling time of tb = 1, 3, 10, 20, 40, and 60 mins. Distilled water was used to observed BHT and CHF performance of different nanofluids boiling time and concentration configurations. Nucleate boiling heat transfer observed to deteriorate in upward facing heater, however; in contrast effect of enhancement for downward. Maximum enhancements of CHF for upward- and downward-facing heater are 2.1 and 1.9 times, respectively. Reduction of mean contact angle demonstrate enhancement on the critical heat flux for both upward-facing and downward-facing heater configuration. However, nucleate boiling heat transfer shows inconsistency in similar concentration with sequence of boiling time. For both downward- and upward-facing nanocoated heater's BHT and CHF, the optimum configuration denotes by C = 400 kg/m3 with tb = 1 min which shows the best increment of boiling curve trend with lowest wall superheat ΔT = 25 K and critical heat flux enhancement of 2.02 times.

Good Agreement

Nucleate boiling heat transfer is first introduced and the literature is reviewed. It was concluded that the passive layer and the grain boundaries are responsible for the transfer to the nucleate boiling regime. Based on the recent work of Biener and his collaborators (Nature Material 2008) and the Gibbs rule of thermodynamics, a possible mechanism was outlined. The mechanism assumes that each grain in the passive layer act as a chemical actuator which is driven by microstructure phase change. The new mechanism agrees well with the experimental results, in good agreement with previous models and can explain why and how CHF occurs.

The effect of staggered-array water impinging jets on boiling heat transfer was investigated by a simultaneous measurement between boiling visualization and heat transfer characteristics. The boiling phenomena of staggered-array impinging jets on hot steel plate were visualized by 4K UHD video camera. The surface temperature and heat flux on hot steel plate was determined by solving 2-D inverse heat conduction problem, which was measured by the flat-plate heat flux gauge. The experiment was made at jet Reynolds number of Re = 5,000 and the jet-to-jet distance of staggered-array jets of S/Dn = 10. Complex flow interaction of staggered-array impinging jets exhibited hexagonal flow pattern like as honey-comb. The calculated surface heat transfer profiles show a good agreement with the corresponding boiling visualization. The peak of heat flux accords with the location which nucleate boiling is occurred at. In early stage, the positions of maximum heat flux locate at the stagnation point of each jet as the relatively low surface temperature is shown at their positions. At the elapsed time of 10 s, the flat shape of heat flux profile is formed in the hexagonal area where the interacting flow uniformly cools down the wetted surface. After that, the wetted area continuously enlarges with time and the maximum heat flux is observed at its peripheral. These results point out that the flow interaction of staggered-array jets effectively cools down the closer area around jets and also show an expansion of nucleate boiling and suppression of film boiling during water jet cooling on hot steel plate.

Nucleate Bubble

Nucleate boiling heat transfer depends on various aspects of the bubble ebullition, such as the bubble nucleation, growth and departure. In this work, a synchronized high-speed optical imaging and infrared (IR) thermography approach was employed to study the ebullition process of a single bubble on a hydrophilic surface. The boiling experiments were conducted at saturated temperature and atmospheric pressure conditions. De-ionized (DI) water was used as the working fluid. The boiling device was made of a 385-um thick silicon wafer. A thin film heater was deposited on one side, and the other side was used as the boiling surface. The onset of nucleate boiling (ONB) occurs at a wall superheat of ΔTsup= 12 °C and an applied heat flux of q" = 35.9 kW/m2. The evolution of the wall heat flux distribution was obtained from the IR temperature measurements, which clearly depicts the existence of the microlayer near the three-phase contact line of the nucleate bubble. The results suggest that, during the bubble growth stage, the evaporation in the microlayer region contributes dominantly to the nucleate boiling heat transfer; however, once the bubble starts to depart from the boiling surface, the microlayer quickly vanishes, and the transient conduction and the microconvection become the prevailing heat transfer mechanisms.
