THE EFFECT OF AN ELECTRIC FIELD ON BOILING HEAT TRANSFER OF R11.

Author(s) : OGATA J.

Summary

THE TEST SECTION CONSISTED OF A HORIZONTAL COPPER PLATE AND SEVERAL ROWS OF 0.8 MM DIAMETER STEEL WIRES. THE NEGATIVE DC FIELD WAS APPLIED BETWEEN A COPPER PLATE AND ELECTRODE WIRES. TWO KINDS OF HEAT TRANSFER SURFACES WERE SELECTED: A POLISHED SURFACE AND A POROUS SURFACE. THE EXPERIMENTAL CONDITIONS WERE: SATURATION TEMPERATURE: ABOUT 298 K (25 DEG C) ; HEAT FLUX: 2,400-13,400 W/M2; APPLIED VOLTAGE: 0-26 KILOVOLTS. IN THE SMOOTHED SURFACE, THE NUMBERS OF BOILING BUBBLES DECREASED WITH AN ELECTRIC FIELD, BUT THE BOILING HEAT TRANSFER COEFFICIENT INCREASED ABOUT 3 TO 6 TIMES AS LARGE AS THAT WITHOUT AN ELECTRIC FIELD. IN THE POROUS SURFACE, AN ELECTRIC FIELD DID NOT ENHANCE HEAT TRANSFER.
