Abstract:

The system HVAC is frequently based on cyclic phase change of boiling fluid. This phase change of boiling fluid (liquid-gas or gas-liquid) is coupled with boiling heat transfer by nucleate boiling, convective boiling and pre/post dryout effect. The nucleate boiling is depended on superheat of wall (i.e. heat flux) and presence of active nucleation sites. The two-phase convection boiling with dependence on mass flux and vapour quality is performed in liquid film between superheated wall and vapour core. The pre/post dryout effect is significant, when the liquid film is consumed and superheated wall is exposed directly to vapour core. This boiling heat transfer by nucleate boiling, convective boiling and pre/post dryout effect is simplified for engineering design on boiling heat transfer coefficient. Therefore, the dissertation thesis is aimed at experimental analysis of phase-change process in advanced engineering design.
