Summary

TWISTED TAPES WERE USED TO CREATE SWIRL MOTION DURING THE FLOW BOILING INSIDE AN EVAPORATOR TUBE OF 10 MM INTERNAL DIAMETER. AVERAGE HEAT TRANSFER COEFFICIENTS HAVE BEEN DETERMINED FOR 60 RUNS CORRESPONDING TO THREE HEAT FLUXES, FIVE MASS VELOCITIES, AND FOUR TWIST RATIOS. SWIRL FLOW HEAT TRANSFER COEFFICIENTS HAVE BEEN FOUND TO BE GREATER THAN THE CORRESPONDING PLAIN FLOW VALUES. AN EMPIRICAL CORRELATION WHICH PREDICTS THE AVERAGE SWIRL FLOW HEAT TRANSFER COEFFICIENTS WITHIN + OR -30 PERCENT OF THE EXPERIMENTALLY OBSERVED VALUES HAS BEEN SUCCESSFULLY DEVELOPED.
