The Heat Transfer Coefficient

Despite numerous empirical relationships, currently there is no sufficiently reliable and physically reasonable methodology for calculating the heat transfer coefficient at boiling the zeotropic binary blends. The main reason is the complexity of the boiling process mechanism. Zeotropic blends have the non-isothermal phase transition or the temperature glide. To perform the analysis, the results of experimental work on boiling the zeotropic blends inside the horizontal smooth tubes were processed. The studies were carried out with the horizontal smooth steel and copper tubes; the mass velocities were varied within 50–583 kg/m2 s; the specific heat flux was varied from 1 to 45 kW/m2 . The experimental data, corresponding to the region of nucleate boiling, were compared with the calculated dependencies. The dependences corresponding to pool boiling were also analyzed. It was proposed to determine the heat transfer coefficient by Gogonin’s dependence (2006); this coincides well with the experimental data. This dependence takes into account the effect of wall thermal properties and its roughness on heat transfer. Moreover, it was found out that, in contrast to pool boiling, for the forced vapor-liquid flow in pipes at nucleate boiling, the diffusion processes are not important.

Boiling Heat Transfer Coefficient

Saturation pool boiling experiments of FC-72 liquid on a flat, porous graphite and smooth copper surfaces measuring 10 × 10 mm investigated the effect of surface orientation on nucleate boiling and Critical Heat Flux (CHF). The inclination angle of the surface increased from 0° (upward-facing) to 60°, 90°, 120°, 150°, and 180° (downward facing). Results demonstrated significant increases in the nucleate boiling heat transfer coefficient and CHF on porous graphite, compared to those on copper. At low surface superheats, increasing the inclination angle increases the nucleate boiling heat transfer coefficient, which decreases with increased inclination angle at high surface superheats. These results and the measured decreases of CHF with increased inclination angle are consistent with those reported earlier by other investigators for dielectric and non-dielectric liquids. On smooth surfaces and micro-porous coatings, the reported fractional decreases in CHF with increased inclination angle are almost identical, but markedly larger than those measured in this work on porous graphite. On these surfaces the reported CHF in the downward-facing position (180° inclination) is ∼10–20% of that in the upward-facing position (0° inclination), compared to ∼53.3% on porous graphite. The CHF values of FC-72 liquid on porous graphite, which also decreased with increased inclination angle, are correlated using the general form suggested by Kutatelatze (1961) to within ± 5% of the experimental data.

Boiling Heat Transfer Coefficient

Experiments of flow boiling heat transfer coefficient of FC-72 were carried out over simulated silicon chip of 10×10×0.5 mm3 for electronic cooling. Four kinds of micro-pin-fins with the dimensions of 30×60, 30×120, 50×60, 50×120 μm2 (thickness, t × height, h) respectively, were fabricated on the chip surfaces by the dry etching technique to enhance boiling heat transfer. A smooth chip was also tested for comparison. The experiments were conducted at three different fluid velocities (0.5, 1 and 2m/s) and three different liquid subcoolings (15, 25 and 35K). All micro-pin-finned surfaces show a considerable heat transfer enhancement compared to the smooth surface. Both the forced convection and nucleate boiling heat transfer contribute to the total heat transfer performance. The contribution of each factor to the total heat transfer has been clearly presented in the flow boiling heat transfer coefficient curves. In a lower heat flux region, the heat transfer coefficient increases greatly with increasing fluid velocity, but increases slightly with increasing heat flux, indicating that the single-phase forced convection dominates the heat transfer process. With further increasing heat flux to the onset of nucleate boiling, the heat transfer coefficient increases remarkably. For a given liquid subcooling, the curves of flow boiling heat transfer coefficient at fluid velocities of 0.5 and 1 m/s almost follow one line for each surface, showing insensitivity of nucleate boiling heat transfer to fluid velocity. However, at the largest fluid velocity of 2 m/s, the slope of the flow boiling heat transfer coefficient curves for micro-pin-finned surfaces becomes smaller, indicating that the forced convection also plays an important role besides the nucleate boiling heat transfer. The curves of the flow boiling heat transfer coefficient can be used to determine the boiling incipience at different fluid velocities, which provides a basis for the suitable fluid velocity selection in designing highly efficient cooling scheme for electronic devices.

The Heat Transfer Coefficient

In this study, the boiling heat transfer coefficients of carbon dioxide with a PAG-type lubricating oil entrained from 0 to 5 wt% in a horizontally placed smooth tube with an inner diameter of 2 mm were experimentally investigated under the following operating conditions: mass fluxes from 170 to 320 kg/m2s, heat fluxes from 4.5 to 36 kW/m2, and a saturation temperature of 15 °C. The results show that for a low oil concentration of approximately 0.5% to 1%, no further deterioration of the heat transfer coefficient was observed at higher oil concentrations in spite of a significant decrement of the heat transfer coefficient compared to that under an oil-free condition. The heat flux still had a positive influence on the heat transfer coefficient in low quality regions. However, no obvious influence was observed in high quality regions, which implies that nucleate boiling dominates in the low quality region whereas it is suppressed in the high quality regions. Unlike the mass flux under an oil-free condition, mass flux has a significant influence on the heat transfer coefficient, with a maximum increase of 50% in the heat transfer. On the basis of our experimental measurements of the flow boiling heat transfer of carbon dioxide under wide experimental conditions, a flow boiling heat transfer model for horizontal tubes has been proposed for a mixture of CO2 and polyalkylene glycol (PAG oil) in the pre-dryout region, with consideration of the thermodynamic properties of the mixture. The surface tension and viscosity of the mixture were particularly taken into account. New factors were introduced into the correlation to reflect the suppressive effects of the mass flux and the oil on both the nucleate boiling. It is shown that the calculated results can depict the influence of the mass flux and the heat flux on both nucleate boiling and convection boiling.

The Heat Transfer Coefficient

Heat transfer coefficient as an important characteristic in heat exchanger design is determined by the correlation developed from previous experimental work or accumulation of published data. Although discrepancies still exist between the existing correlations and practical data, several researchers claimed theirs as a generalized heat transfer correlation. Through optimization method, this study predicts the heat transfer coefficient of two-phase flow of propane in a small channel at the saturation temperature of 10[Formula: see text]C using two categories of correlation — superposition and asymptotic. Both methods consist of the contribution of nucleate boiling and forced convective heat transfer, the mechanisms that contribute to the total two-phase heat transfer coefficient, which become as two objective functions to be maximized. The optimization of experimental parameters of heat flux, mass flux, channel diameter and vapor quality is done by using genetic algorithm within a range of 5–20[Formula: see text]kW/m2, 100–250[Formula: see text]kg/m2[Formula: see text]s, 1.5–3[Formula: see text]mm and 0.009–0.99, respectively. In the result, the selected correlations under optimized condition agreed on the dominant mechanism at low and high vapor qualities are caused by the nucleate boiling and forced convective heat transfer, respectively. The optimization work served as an alternative approach in identifying optimized parameters from different correlations to achieve high heat transfer coefficient by giving a fast prediction of parameter range, particularly for the investigation of any new refrigerant. In parallel with some experimental works, a quick prediction is possible to reduce time and cost. From the four selected generalized correlations, Bertsch et al. show the closer trend with the reference experimental work until vapor quality of 0.6.

Current and previous studies by the authors and others have shown shown that the carryover of oil in refrigeration systems can have a significant influence on the boiling performance in the evaporator of refrigeration systems. This investigation was conducted primarily to develop a general correlation equation for predicting the heat transfer coefficient for refrigerants and refrigerant-oil mixtures under pool boiling conditions. Experimental results were obtained to establish the validity of the correlation equation.

Abstract The coolant flow characteristics at the hole exits of a film-cooled blade are derived from an earlier analysis where the hole pipes and coolant plenum were also discretized. The blade chosen is the VKI rotor with three staggered rows of shower-head holes. The present analysis applies these flow characteristics at the shower-head hole exits. A multi-block three-dimensional Navier-Stokes code with Wilcox’s k-ω model is used to compute the heat transfer coefficient on the film-cooled turbine blade. A reasonably good comparison with the experimental data as well as with the more complete earlier analysis where the hole pipes and coolant plenum were also gridded is obtained. If the 1/7th power law is assumed for the coolant flow characteristics at the hole exits, considerable differences in the heat transfer coefficient on the blade surface, specially in the leading-edge region, are observed even though the span-averaged values of h match well with the experimental data. This calls for span-resolved experimental data near film-cooling holes on a blade for better validation of the code.

Abstract A visual pool boiling experimental device based on ITO coating layer heater and high-speed shooting technology was established for studying the bubble behavior and heat transfer characteristics of saline solution, which is of great significance for ensuring heat transfer safety in nuclear power plants, steam injection boilers and seawater desalination. Volume of fluid method was applied to simulate numerically the liquid–vapor phase change by adding source terms in the continuity equation and energy equation. The predictions of the model are quantitatively verified against the experimental data. It can be found based on the experimental data that the pool boiling heat transfer coefficient is enhanced as the salt concentration increases. Visualization studies and numerical data have shown that the presence and precipitation of salt leads to a decrease in the detachment diameter and growth time of the bubble and an increase in the frequency of detachment, thereby increasing the pool boiling heat transfer coefficient.

The Heat Transfer Coefficient

Nucleate pool boiling heat transfer increases with certain liquid mixtures and some coatings over the heater’s surface. The effects of these modifications are best measured by the relative values of the convective heat transfer coefficient that quantify the ability for transferring heat. The mechanisms that increase pool boiling heat transfer are reflected in the formation of smaller bubbles that escape away from the heater’s surface at a higher velocity, than those formed under not enhanced conditions. The bubble diameter depends on a chemical effect from the liquid composition acting at the bubble’s interface, and on the physical effect of the porous coverings to break the bubbles and to allow the resulting vapor flow. The reduction in bubble diameter in liquid mixtures comes from the action of intermolecular forces at the liquid-vapor interface similar to those associated to surfactants. Several studies have concentrated on increasing the heat transfer coefficient in pool using surfactants in concentrations close to the critical micelle concentration (cmc) of the surfactant in the liquid. The surfactants achieve the highest reduction of bubble diameter by accommodating the lowest surface of their molecules at the interface. However, the mixture of 16% ethanol in water also showed an increase in the convective heat transfer coefficient by producing the lowest size of bubbles from any other ethanol-water mixture. Surface tension and sessile drop contact angle for this mixture have a behavior similar to the cmc; therefore, the mixture effect on boiling is explained through the presence of ethanol-hydrated-states accommodated at the interface. Other liquid mixtures, containing propylene glycol, ethylene glycol, ethanol and water, with cmc behavior had been found through surface tension and sessile contact angle measurements, and showed that they increased the heat transfer coefficient. The mechanical effect that increases the heat transfer coefficient with porous coverings has been explained as the breaking of emerging bubbles at the heater’s surface and the proper handling of the resulting vapor flow away from the covering. Experiments with a mesh located at a distance half the bubble diameter, at a specific power supplied, released the bubbles from the heater before finishing its formation increasing their departure frequency. An array of layers of the same mesh produced and additional increment in the heat transfer coefficient if the array is accommodated to favor the gas flow out of the heater’s region.
