Author(s) : ESSOME G. R., OROZCO J.

Type of article: Article

Summary

A THEORETICAL ANALYSIS IS PERFORMED TO OUTLINE THE EFFECT OF DIFFUSION PHENOMENA ON THE FILM BOILING HEAT TRANSFER PROCESS FROM A VERTICAL PLATE TO A LIQUID MIXTURE IN A POROUS MEDIUM. WITH BOUNDARY LAYER APPROXIMATIONS, THE CONSERVATION LAWS ARE RESOLVED BY MEANS OF SIMILARITY TRANSFORMATIONS. THE RESULTING SET OF DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS IS SOLVED USING A SHOOTING TECHNIQUE. HEAT TRANSFER RESULTS ARE OBTAINED FOR A RANGE OF OPERATING CONDITIONS APPLIED TO A MIXTURE OF WATER AND METHANOL. EXPERIMENTS ARE CONDUCTED TO VERIFY THE THEORETICAL FINDINGS, AND EXCELLENT AGREEMENT IS FOUND BETWEEN THEORY AND EXPERIMENT.
