Type of article: Article

Summary

AN EMPIRICAL CORRELATION IS PRESENTED FOR THE CONDENSATION OF PURE VAPOUR ON A SUBCOOLED, TURBULENT LIQUID WITH A SHEAR-FREE INTERFACE. THE CORRELATION EXPRESSES THE DEPENDENCE OF THE CONDENSATION RATE ON FLUID PROPERTIES, ON THE LIQUID-SIDE TURBULENCE (WHICH IS IMPOSED FROM BELOW), AND ON THE EFFECTS OF BUOYANCY IN THE INTERFACIAL THERMAL LAYER. THE CORRELATION IS DERIVED FROM EXPERIMENTS WITH STEAM AND WATER, BUT UNDER CONDITIONS WHICH SIMULATE TYPICAL CRYOGENIC FLUIDS.
