Experimental study of cryogenic liquids in the metastable superheated state.

Author(s) : BAIDAKOV V. G., SKRIPOV V. P.

Type of article: Article

Summary

Data are presented on the maximum attainable superheat temperature of typical cryogenic liquids from atmospheric to close to critical pressures. The nucleation mechanism and the influence of factors that induce boiling at the attainable superheat of liquids are discussed. The results of experiments are compared with theory. Data on the thermodynamic properties of cryogenic liquids in a metastable state are presented. The construction of the equation of state of metastable liquids is discussed. Explosive boiling phenomena connected with large superheats of cryogenic liquids are considered, and the discharge of cryogenic liquids through short tubes and the heat interaction of cold liquid droplets with a hot surface are investigated.
