Summary

This paper deals with convective boiling of ternary mixtures in vertical tubes. Experiments were carried out in 8.58 m long, 25.4 mm ID, electrically heated test section using an n-pentane/n-hexane/iso-octane mixture (0.31/0.22/0.47 overall mole fraction). Bulk and wall temperatures as well as local heat transfer coefficients were measured. The results were compared with those obtained using an extension to ternary (and multicomponent) mixtures of the methodology proposed by the authors (Int. J. Heat Mass Transfer 44(2001), 1465, 1475) for prediction of forced convective boiling of binary mixtures in upward annular flow.
