Flow boiling of R134a in vertical mini-diameter tubesMahmoud, Mohamed M. January 2011 (has links)
The current study is a part of a long term experimental project devoted to investigate flow boiling heat transfer, pressure drop and flow visualization of R134a in small to mini/micro-diameter tubes. The experimental facility was first designed and constructed by X. Huo (2005) with the contribution of L. Chen (2006). In the present study, the experimental facility was upgraded by changing the heating system from AC to DC heating and also upgrading the logging system through using a faster data logger and developing a new Labview program. The objectives of the current study include (i) contribute in identifying the reasons behind the wide scatter in the published flow boiling heat transfer results, (ii) contribute in understanding the fundamentals of flow boiling heat transfer in mini/micro-diameter tubes and (iii) evaluation of the existing heat transfer and pressure drop prediction methods. Two sizes of stainless steel tubes were investigated in the current study; 0.52 mm and 1.1 mm diameter. In the current study, the 0.52 mm tube was roughly called a “micro-tube” whilst the 1.1 mm tubes were called “mini-tubes”. The present study proposes two possible reasons for the scatter in the published heat transfer results. The first reason is the variations in the heated length from one study to another–there is no criterion for choosing the heated length. The second reason is the variations in the inner surface characteristics of the channels from one study to another. These two important parameters were not taken into consideration by researchers in the past studies. Accordingly, the effect of the heated length was investigated in the current study using a seamless cold drawn tube with diameter of 1.1 mm and heated length ranging from 150 to 450 mm. The effect of the tube inner surface was also tested here by conducting the test in two stainless steel tubes with diameter of 1.1 mm and manufactured by two different processes. The first tube was manufactured by welding technique whilst the second tube was a seamless cold drawn tube. Both tubes were identical in design and dimensions. The inner surface of each tube was examined first using SEM analysis and demonstrated that, the surface morphology is completely different. The local heat transfer coefficient was determined through measuring the local wall temperature using 14 K-type thermocouples attached to the wall using thermally conducting but electrically insulating epoxy supplied by Omega. Pressure drop was measured directly across the heated section and a high speed camera was used for the flow visualization at 1000 frames/s. All measurements were recorded after the system attained steady state. The experimental conditions include mass flux range of 100 – 500 kg/m2 s, system pressure range of 6 – 10 bar, inlet sub-cooling of about 5K and exit quality up to about 0.9. The most frequently observed flow regimes in the 0.52 mm tube were found to be slug (elongated bubble), transition to annular and annular flow regimes. In the 1.1 mm tube, the observed regimes were found to be slug, churn and annular. The transition from slug flow to annular flow in the 0.52 mm tube occurred smoothly with little disturbances at the liquid vapour interface compared to the 1.1 mm tube. Additionally, increasing the heated length of the 1.1 mm tube was found to shift the transition to annular flow to occur at lower vapour quality. The heat transfer results demonstrated that the behaviour of the local heat transfer coefficient in the 0.52 mm diameter tube is different compared to that in the 1.1 mm tubes. Also, the tube inner surface characteristics and the heated length were found to strongly influence the local behaviour of the heat transfer coefficient. Flow boiling hysteresis was investigated and the results indicated that hysteresis exists only at very low heat fluxes near the boiling incipience. Existing heat transfer and pressure drop correlations were examined using the results of the 0.52 and 1.1 mm seamless cold drawn tubes. The pressure drop data were predicted very well using the Muller-Stienhagen and Heck (1986) correlation, the homogeneous flow model and the correlation of Mishima and Hibiki (1996). On the contrary, all macro and microscale heat correlations failed to predict the current experimental data. The mechanistic models failed to predict the data of all tubes with the same accuracy. Accordingly, two heat transfer correlations were proposed in the current study. The first correlation is based on dimensionless groups whilst the second is based on the superposition model of Chen (1966). Both correlations predicted the current experimental data and the data of Huo (2005) and Shiferaw (2008) very well.

Flow boiling near the critical heat fluxDel Valle Mun̄oz, Victor Hugo January 1980 (has links)
An experimental investigation of the flow boiling of water at atmospheric pressure was undertaken, including a highâspeed cine photographic study of the flow structure near the Critical Heat Flux (CHF). Experimental tests from single-phase forced convection to burnout were conducted at different flow velocities and inlet subcoolings for water flowing upwards through a vertical channel of rectangular crossâsection electrically heated on one wall with a glass window forming the opposite wall. The test surfaces were stainless steel strips of constant dimensions, except that wall thickness ranged from 0.08 mm to 0.20 mm. Quantitative measurements of the bubble parameters for the same heating surface under the same operating conditions with varying levels of heat flux (70% to 95% of CHF) were carried out. A nucleation site deactivation/reactivation process was observed with increasing heat flux. A proposed site deactivation mechanism explained this behaviour. A nucleate boiling heat transfer model was proposed for the fullyâ developed nucleate boiling region, with allowance made for the overlapping areas of bubble influence. It compared favourably with the experimental data. The effect of wall thickness on CHF was investigated: increases in CHF as between the 0.08 mm and the 0.20 mm wall thickness ranging from 38% to 57% were observed. An empirical expression for CHF, including wall thickness as a parameter was developed, correlating the experimental data to within 15% and indicating a limiting value for wall thickness affecting CHF. The flow regimes near burnout were identified as bubbly and slug, these being independent of wall thickness. Other models proposed for the CHF mechanism were tested against the detailed experimental observations at high subcoolings. They were found to be inconsistent with the experimental evidence. A possible alternative for the CHF mechanism points towards stabilisation/ growth of a vapour patch following bubble coalescence as a most likely cause for burnout.

Review of Cryogenic Pool Boiling Critical Heat Flux Databases, Assessment of Models and Correlations, and Development of New Universal CorrelationRaj Mukeshbhai Patel (11655130) 20 December 2021 (has links)
<p>Despite worldwide interest in a number of applications involving cryogenic fluids that are crucial to future space exploration, there is presently a lack of a large, reliable cryogenic pool boiling critical heat flux (CHF) database that can be used for assessment of accuracy of available predictive tools - model and correlations – or development of new tools. This shortcoming is a primary motivation for the present study, prompting compilation of a new consolidated cryogenic pool boiling CHF database from world literature. The database is used to assess accuracy of previous models and correlations, which are segregated according to ability to predict key operating parameters, such as pressure, surface orientation, and subcooling. A new correlation is constructed which shows very good predictive accuracy, evidenced by a mean absolute error of 16.95%, based on Earth gravity data which comprise a large fraction of the consolidated database. Using a limited subset of datapoints for three cryogens and a reduced gravity range of 0 to 0.7466, the new correlation is further modified with a reduced gravity multiplier to tackle reduced gravity conditions. The modified correlation has a mean absolute error of 17.47%, slightly higher than for Earth gravity alone. Overall, the new correlations are proven far more accurate than all prior models and correlations and therefore constitute new powerful tools for design of cryogenic space systems. It is shown CHF is very sensitive to pressure, increasing with increasing pressure up to maximum before decreasing appreciably toward critical pressure. CHF is also shown to be strongly influenced by surface orientation, being highest for horizontal surfaces and decreasing monotonically with increasing orientation angle, and increasing fairly linearly with increased subcooling.</p><p>Additionally, CHF models and correlations are assessed using amassed quenching CHF data that showed overpredictions of data. A new correlation is formulated which includes the effects of surface material and heater thickness to achieve high predictive accuracy for complied quenching CHF database. The new correlation has a mean absolute error and root mean square error of 10.79% and 16.12%, respectively, based on a compiled database. Analysis of complied quenching data showed that CHF is sensitive to the surface material, increasing with increasing thermal conductivity but, the influence of surface material becomes weak with increasing thermal conductivity. CHF is also strongly influenced by heater thickness, increasing with increased heater thickness till it reaches the asymptotic thickness. </p>

Boiling Heat Transfer to Turbulent Liquid FilmsDernedde, Edgar 05 1900 (has links)
<p> Benzene and water films were passed over an inclined, hot copper plate. The boiling heat transfer to the turbulent liquid films has been measured with local heat-flux meters. These meters have been adopted from a design suggested by Gardon (G10), and could be used to measure boiling heat fluxes with an accuracy of about -20,000 BTU/hr.sq.ft. The results indicate that the heat transfer to the liquid films compares well with that of forced convection subcooled boiling. </p> <p> During boiling the liquid film is destroyed by the growing vapour bubbles and by the separation of the liquid from the hot plate. The break-up of the liquid films has been investigated with high-speed photography but an analysis of the hydrodynamics of this break-up has not been made. </p> / Thesis / Master of Engineering (ME)

QUENCH OF CYLINDRICAL TUBES DURING TRANSITION FROM FILM TO NUCLEATE BOILING HEAT TRANSFER IN CANDU REACTOR CORETakrouri, Kifah January 2011 (has links)
Study of quench cooling is very important in nuclear reactor safety for limiting
the extent of core damage during the early stages of severe accidents after Loss of
Coolant Accidents (LOCA). Quench of a hot dry surface involves the rapid
decrease in surface temperature resulting from bringing the hot surface into
sudden contact with a coolant at a lower temperature. The quench temperature is
the onset of the rapid decrease in the surface temperature and corresponds to the
onset of destabilization of a vapor film that exists between the hot surface and the
coolant. Re-wetting the surface is the establishment of direct contact between the
surface and the liquid at the so-called re-wetting temperature. Re-wetting is
characterized by the formation of a wet patch on the surface which then spreads to
cover the entire surface. Situations involving quench and re-wetting heat transfer
are encountered in a number of postulated accidents in Canada Deuterium
Uranium (CANDU) reactors, such as re-wetting of a hot dry calandria tube in a
critical break LOCA. This accident results in high heat transfer from the calandria
tube to the surrounding moderator liquid which can cause the calandria tube
surface to experience dryout and a subsequent escalation in the surface
temperature. If the calandria tube temperature is not reduced by initiation of
quench heat transfer, then this may lead to subsequent fuel channel failure. In
literature very limited knowledge is available on quench and re-wetting of hot
curved surfaces like the calandria tubes. In this study, a Water Quench Facility (WQF) has been constructed and a series of
experiments were conducted to investigate the quench and re-wetting of hot
horizontal tubes by a vertical rectangular water multi-jet system. The tubes were
heated to a temperature between 380-800°C in a controlled temperature furnace
then cooled to the jet temperature. The temperature variation with time in the
circumferential and the axial directions of the tubes has been measured. The twophase
flow behavior and the propagation of the re-wetting front around and along
the tubes were simultaneously observed by using a high-speed camera. The
effects of several parameters on the cooling process have been investigated. These
parameters include: initial surface temperature, water subcooling (in the range 15-
800C), jet velocity (in the range 0.15-1.60 m/s), tube solid material (brass, steel
and Alumina), surface curvature, tube wall thickness, jet orientation and number
of jets. The variables studied include the re-wetting delay time (time to quench
after initiating the cooling process), there-wetting front propagation velocity, the
quench and re-wetting temperatures, the quench cooling rates and the boiling
region size. The quench and the re-wetting temperatures as well as the re-wetting
delay time were found to be a strong function of water subcooling. The quench
and re-wetting temperatures increase with increasing water subcooling. The rewetting
delay time decreases with increasing the water subcooling, decreasing
initial surface temperature, increasing liquid velocity and decreasing the surface
curvature. There-wetting front velocity is mainly dependent on the initial surface temperature and water subcooling. The re-wetting velocity increases by
decreasing the initial surface temperature and by increasing the water subcooling.
Decreasing the surface curvature was found to also increase the re-wetting front
velocity. Correlations of the phenomena studied have been developed and
provided good prediction of the experimental data collected in this study and data
available from literature. The. results of this study provide novel knowledge and
an experimental database for mechanistic modeling of quench heat transfer on
calandria tube surfaces that experience dryout and film boiling. / Thesis / Doctor of Philosophy (PhD)

Experimental investigation of effects of coolant concentration on subcooled boiling and crud deposition on reactor cladding at high pressures and high temperaturesParavastu Pattarabhiran, Vijaya Raghava January 1900 (has links)
Master of Science / Department of Mechanical and Nuclear Engineering / Donald L. Fenton / Increase in demand for energy necessitates nuclear power units to increase their peak power limits. This increase implies significant changes in the design of the nuclear power unit core in order to provide better economy and safety in operations. A major hindrance to the increase of nuclear reactor performance especially in Pressurized Water Reactors (PWR) is the so called ‘Axial Offset Anomaly (AOA)’. An Axial Offset Anomaly (AOA) is the unexpected change in the core axial power distribution during the operation of a PWR from the predicted distribution. This problem is thought to be occurring because of precipitation and deposition of lithiated compounds such as lithium metaborate (LiBO[subscript]2) on the fuel rod. Due to its intrinsic property, the deposited boron absorbs neutrons thereby affecting the total power distribution in the reactor. AOA is thought to occur when there is sufficient build up of crud deposits on the cladding during subcooled nucleate boiling.
Predicting AOA is difficult because there is little information regarding the heat and mass transfer during subcooled nucleate boiling. This thesis describes the experimental investigation that was conducted to study the heat transfer characteristics during subcooled nucleate boiling at prototypical PWR conditions. Pool boiling tests were conducted with varying concentrations of LiBO[subscript]2 and boric acid (H[subscript]2BO[subscript]3) solutions along with deionized water. The experimental data collected includes the effect of coolant concentration, degree of subcooling, system pressure and heat flux on pool boiling heat transfer coefficients. An analysis of deposits formed on the fuel rod during subcooled nucleate boiling is also included in the thesis.
The experimental results reveal that the pool boiling heat transfer coefficient is degraded by the presence of boric acid and lithium metaborate in water. At concentration of 5000 ppm in water, the boric acid solution reduced the heat transfer coefficient by 23% and lithium metaborate solution reduced the heat transfer coefficient by 26%.

Esse ganho está relacionado com o aumento do número de sítios ativos de nucleação causado pela deposição das nanopartículas sobre a superfície lisa. Para todos os testes com superfícies rugosas nanoestruturadas e lisa nanoestruturada com alta concentração, houve degradação do HTC, devido ao efeito de preenchimento das cavidades e formação de uma resistência térmica adicional. Para baixos fluxos de calor, houve um aumento no HTC para os casos confinados em comparação aos livres, como consequência da evaporação do filme líquido presente entre a superfície aquecida e a bolha de vapor. Porém com o aumento do fluxo de calor, o fenômeno do dryout é antecipado em relação aos testes livres, o que compromete o desempenho de componentes sob essas condições. Nos testes sob confinamento foram observados ganhos no fluxo de calor de início do dryout para todas as superfícies nanoestruturadas testadas, chegando a 52% para a superfície lisa nanoestruturada em alta concentração, em comparação à superfície lisa sem nanoestrutura.

For all tests with rough nanocoated surfaces and nanocoated smooth one with high nanofluid concentration, there was degradation of the HTC due to the filling effect of the cavities and the formation of an additional thermal resistance. For low heat fluxes, the HTC increased for confined cases compare to unconfined ones, as consequence of the liquid film evaporation present between the heated surface and the vapor bubble. However, with heat flux increase, the dryout phenomenon incipience is precipitated in relation to unconfined tests, which compromises the performance of components under these conditions. In the confined tests, enhancement in dryout incipience heat flux were observed for all nanocoated surfaces tested, reaching 52% for the nanocoated smooth surface in high concentration, compared to the smooth surface without nanostructure. This shows that nanostructure, while not promoting HTC enhancement, helps to delay the dryout incipience heat flux, which is the operational limit of systems that work under confinement.

Synthesis of colloidal metal oxide nanocrystals and nanostructured surfaces using a continuous flow microreactor system and their applications in two-phase boiling heat transferChoi, Chang-Ho 04 March 2013 (has links)
Metal oxide nanocrystals have attracted significant interests due to their unique chemical, physical, and electrical properties which depend on their size and structure. In this study, a continuous flow microreactor system was employed to synthesize metal oxide nanocrystals in aqueous solution. Assembly of nanocrystals is considered one of the most promising approaches to design nano-, microstructures, and complex mesoscopic architectures. A variety of strategies to induce nanocrystal assembly have been reported, including directed assembly methods that apply external forces to fabricate assembled structures.
In this study ZnO nanocrystals were synthesized in an aqueous solution using a continuous flow microreactor. The growth mechanism and stability of ZnO nanocrystals were studied by varying the pH and flow conditions of the aqueous solution. It was found that convective fluid flow from Dean vortices in a winding microcapillary tube could be used for the assembly of ZnO nanocrystals. The ZnO
nanocrystal assemblies formed three-dimensional mesoporous structures of different shapes including a tactoid, a retangle and a sphere. The assembly results from a competing interaction between electrostatic forces caused by surface charge of nanocrystals and collision of nanocrystals associated with Dean vortices. The as synthesized colloidal ZnO nanocrystals or assembly were directly deposited onto a substrate to fabricate ZnO nanostructured surfaces. The rectangular assembly led to flower-like ZnO nanostructured films, while the spherical assembly resulted in amorphous ZnO thin film and vertical ZnO nanowire (NW) arrays. In contrast to the formation of flower structure or amorphous thin film, only colloidal ZnO nanocrystals were used as the building blocks for forming vertical ZnO NW arrays. This study demonstrates the versatility of the microreactor-assisted nanomaterial synthesis and deposition process for the production of nanostrucuturesres with various morphologies by tuning the physical parameters while using the same chemical precursors for the synthesis.
ZnO flower structure was coated on a microwick structure to improve the capillary flow. The coated microwick structure showed an enhanced capillary rise, which was attributed to the hydrophilic property and geometrical modification of ZnO nanostructure. Two-phase boiling heat transfer was performed using ZnO nanostructured surfaces. ZnO nanocoating altered the important characteristics including surface roughness and wettability. Hydrophilic nature of the ZnO nanocoating generally enhanced the boiling heat transfer performance, resulting in higher heat transfer coefficient (HTC), higher critical heat flux (CHF), and lower surface superheat comparing to the bare surface. Octahedral SnO and porous NiO
films, fabricated by a continuous flow microreactor system, were suggested as potential boiling surfaces for the high porosity and irregularity of their structures. / Graduation date: 2013
