This work deals with experimental results on boiling from a horizontal platinum wire, 0·1 mm in diameter, submerged in saturated liquids as carbon dioxide (CO2) and Freon 13 (CF3Cl) in the critical region. Three discrete regimes without steady transition could be observed: natural convection, nucleate boiling, and film boiling. Near the critical point particular flow patterns appeared in the rising vapour in film boiling: regular bubbles, vapour columns, and vapour hazes with garland-like boundaries. These flow patterns could be simulated in model experiments with liquids and were also photographed with a high-speed camera.

The free-convection heat transfer from a 0.015-in-dia horizontal platinum wire to carbon dioxide in its critical region is experimentally investigated. The bulk fluid temperature and pressure are varied from 48 deg F to 136 deg F and 1000 psia to 1300 psia, respectively. Wire temperatures up to 1600 deg F are used. The results do not show the sharp rise in the heat flux curves that has been reported in a recent investigation. From the present measurements it appears that the usual free-convection correlation can be used even near the critical state, providing the properties are suitably evaluated.

This paper presents a thorough analysis of ability of various heat transfer correlations to predict wall temperatures and Heat Transfer Coefficients (HTCs) against experiments on internal forced-convective heat transfer to supercritical carbon dioxide conducted by Koppel [1], He [2], Kim [3] and Bae [4]. It should be noted the Koppel dataset was taken from a paper which used the Koppel data but was not written by Koppel. All experiments were completed in bare tubes with diameters from 0.948 mm to 9 mm for horizontal and vertical configurations. The datasets contain a total of 1573 wall temperature points with pressures ranging from 7.58 to 9.59 MPa, mass fluxes of 400 to 1641 kg/m2s and heat fluxes from 20 to 225 kW/m2. The main objective of the study was to compare several correlations and select the best of them in predicting HTC and wall temperature values for supercritical carbon dioxide. This study will be beneficial for analyzing heat exchangers involving supercritical carbon dioxide, and for verifying scaling parameters between CO2 and other fluids. In addition, supercritical carbon dioxide’s use as a modeling fluid is necessary as the costs of experiments are lower than supercritical water. The datasets were compiled and calculations were performed to find HTCs and wall and bulk-fluid temperatures using existing correlations. Calculated results were compared with the experimental ones. The correlations used were Mokry et al. [5], Swenson et al. [6] and a set of new correlations presented in Gutpa et al. [7]. Statistical error calculations were performed are presented in the paper.
