THEORETICAL STUDIES OF STABILITY IN POOL BOILING HELIUM I.

Author(s) : NICK W.

Summary

LOOKING FOR LIMITS AT HIGHER CURRENTS THE AUTHOR FOUND STABILITY OF SHORT NORMAL ZONES DUE TO AXIAL THERMAL CONDUCTION. THE CRITICAL ENERGY IS CALCULATED APPROXIMATELY BY ANALYTICAL METHODS AND CAN BE UNDERSTOOD AS THE ENERGY TO RAISE A CHARACTERISTIC LENGTH OF CONDUCTOR TO THE CRITICAL TEMPERATURE. THE THEORY ALSO ALLOWS PREDICTIONS ON THE TIME SCALE OF RECOVERY PROCESSES. IF THERE IS A SUDDEN ENERGY RELEASE OVER GREATER LENGTHS OF CONDUCTOR THERE MAY STILL BE RECOVERY DUE TO TRANSIENT HEAT TRANSFER, IF A CRITICAL ENERGY DENSITY IS NOT EXCEEDED BY THE DISTURBANCE. TRANSIENT HEAT TRANSFER ALSO IMPROVES STABILITY OF SHORT NORMAL ZONES.
