Size distribution of active and potential nucleation sites on horizontal evaporator tubes.

Author(s) : LUKE A., DANGER A.

Summary

Heat transfer measurements and an investigation of bubble formation were carried out during the same experiment. The results in terms of bubble formation are obtained by a high speed video technique, and the evaluation is performed by special programmes. The local distribution of the active nucleation sites is determined on a horizontal copper tube in boiling propane for an intermediate pressure from low to high heat fluxes.
