Transient boiling from inclined and downward-facing surfaces in a saturated pool.

Type of article: Article, IJR article

Summary

Quenching experiments investigating transient pool boiling from the underside of inclined and downward-facing flat surfaces in saturated water were performed. Inclination angles investigated were 0 deg (downward facing), 5, 10, 15, 30, 45, and 90 deg (vertical). While transition boiling heat flux and both critical heat flux and minimum film boiling heat flux and the corresponding wall superheats increased as the inclination angle was increased, nucleate boiling heat flux decreased. The values of critical heat flux and minimum film boiling heat flux and the corresponding wall superheats are correlated as functions of the inclination angle.
