The prediction of low quality boiling voids
(Cambridge, Mass. : M.I.T. Division of Sponsored Research, [1963], 1963)
Slug flow theory is used to predict the density in heated channels of various shapes. In order to make this calculation possible, measurements are made of the bubble rise velocity in annuli, tube bundles, and channels. It ...
Transition boiling heat transfer from a horizontal surface
(Cambridge, Mass. : Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Division of Industrial Cooperation, [1960], 1960)
An experiment, utilising a condensing fluid as the heat source, was performed to determine the heat flux vs. temperature difference curve for transition pool boiling from a horisontal surface. The boiling cure was determined ...
Boiling and condensation in a liquid-filled enclosure
(Cambridge, Mass. : M.I.T. Heat Transfer Laboratory, [1971], 1971)
A combined experimental and analytical investigation of boiling and condensation in a liquid-filled enclosure, with water and Freon- 113 as the working fluids, is described. The operating characteristics of a boiling system, ...
Thermal non-equilibrium in dispersed flow film boiling in a vertical tube
(Cambridge, Mass. : M.I.T. Dept. of Mechanical Engineering, [1966], 1966)
The departure from thermal equilibrium between a dispersed liquid phase and its vapor at high quality during film boiling is investigated, The departure from equilibruim is manifested by the high resistance to heat transfer ...
A study of boiling water flow regimes at low pressures
(Cambridge, Mass. : M.I.T. Dept. of Mechanical Engineering, [1966], 1966)
"A comprehensive experimental program to examine flow regimes at pressures below 100 psia for boiling of water in tubes was carried out. An electrical probe, which measures the resistance of the fluid between the centerline ...
Void volumes in subcooled boiling systems
(Cambridge, Mass. : M.I.T. Division of Industrial Cooperation, [1958], 1958)
Introduction: Knowledge of the pressure drop in a channel and the resulting flow redistribution is essential in predicting the performance of a nuclear reactor. The pressure drop in a channel which is experiencing boiling ...
A method of correlating heat transfer data for surface boiling of liquids
(Cambridge, Mass. : M.I.T. Division of Industrial Cooporation, [1951], 1951)
A method based an a logical uxplanation of the meani of beat transfer associated with the boiling process is presented for correlating heat transfer data for nucleate boiling of liquids for the case of pool boiling. Tbe ...
Survey and evaluation of techniques to augment convective heat transfer
(Cambridge, Mass. : M.I.T. Dept. of Mechanical Engineering, [1965], 1965)
This report presents a survey and evaluation of the numerous techniques which have been shown to augment convective heat transfer. These techniques are: surface promoters, including roughness and treatment; displaced ...
Forced-convection surface-boiling heat transfer and burnout in tubes of small diameters
(Cambridge, Mass. : M.I.T. Dept. of Mechanical Engineering, [1962], 1962)
A basic heat-transfer apparatus was designed and constructed for the study of forced-convection boiling in small channels. The various regions of forced-convection surface boiling were studied experimentally and analytically. ...
Film boiling of saturated liquid flowing upward through a heated tube : high vapor quality range
(Cambridge, Mass. : M.I.T. Dept. of Mechanical Engineering, [1964], 1964)
Film boiling of saturated liquid flowing upward through a uniformly heated tube has been studied for the case in which pure saturated liquid enters the tube and nearly saturated vapor is discharged. Since a previous study ...
