SOME EXPERIMENTS WITH HELIUM II ABOVE THE CRITICAL HEAT FLUX.

Author(s) : SCIVER S. W. van

Summary

VERY DIFFERENT BEHAVIOUR IS OBSERVED TO OCCUR DEPENDING ON WHETHER THE EXPERIMENT IS PERFORMED IN SATURATED OR SUBCOOLED HELIUM AND WHETHER THE HELIUM IS STATIC OR FORCED FLOW. IN VERTICALLY ORIENTED CHANNEL EXPERIMENTS, THE HEAT TRANSPORT IN SATURATED HELIUM II IS ENHANCED BY EXCEEDING THE CRITICAL HEAT FLUX, AN EFFECT BROUGHT ON BY THE BULK BOILING. IN SUBCOOLED HELIUM ABOVE THE CRITICAL HEAT FLUX, A LARGE INCREASE IN THE LIQUID HELIUM TEMPERATURE OCCURS WITH ASSOCIATED FORMATION OF LIQUID HELIUM I.
