Experimental investigations on boiling of n-pentane across a horizontal tube bundle: two-phase flow and heat transfer characteristics.

Author(s) : ROSER R., THONON B., MERCIER P.

Summary

The paper presents the heat transfer characteristics obtained from an experimental investigation on flow boiling of n-pentane across a horizontal tube bundle. The tubes are plain with an outside diameter of 19.05 millimeters and the bundle arrangement is inverse staggered with a pitch to diameter ratio of 1.33. The test conditions consist of reduced pressure between 0.006 and 0.015, mass velocity from 14 to 44 kg/m2 second, heat flux up to 60 kilowatts m2 and vapour quality up to 60 percent.
