We present the results of an experimental study of the effects of externally imposed electric fields on boiling heat transfer and critical heat flux (CHF) in dielectric fluids. The study comprises the analysis of geometries that, under the effects of electric fields, cause the bubbles either to be pushed toward the heater or away from it. A local phase detection probe was used to measure the void fraction and the interfacial impact rate near the heater. It was found that the critical heat flux can be either augmented or reduced with the application of an electric field, depending on the direction of . In addition, the heat transfer can be slightly enhanced or degraded depending on the heat flux. The study of the two-phase flow in nucleate boiling, only for the case of favorable dielectrophoretic forces, reveals that the application of an electric field reduces the bubble detection time and increases the detachment frequency. It also shows that the two-phase flow characteristics of the second film boiling regime resemble more a nucleate boiling regime than a film boiling regime.

Nucleate Boiling Heat Transfer

Boiling heat transfer (BHT) and critical heat flux (CHF) performance were experimentally studied for saturated pool boiling of water-based nanofluids. In present experimental works, copper heaters of 20 mm diameter with titanium-oxide (TiO2) nanocoated surface were produced in pool boiling of nanofluid. Experiments were performed in both upward and downward facing nanofluid coated heater surface. TiO2 nanoparticle was used with concentration ranging from 0.004 until 0.4 kg/m3 and boiling time of tb = 1, 3, 10, 20, 40, and 60 mins. Distilled water was used to observed BHT and CHF performance of different nanofluids boiling time and concentration configurations. Nucleate boiling heat transfer observed to deteriorate in upward facing heater, however; in contrast effect of enhancement for downward. Maximum enhancements of CHF for upward- and downward-facing heater are 2.1 and 1.9 times, respectively. Reduction of mean contact angle demonstrate enhancement on the critical heat flux for both upward-facing and downward-facing heater configuration. However, nucleate boiling heat transfer shows inconsistency in similar concentration with sequence of boiling time. For both downward- and upward-facing nanocoated heater's BHT and CHF, the optimum configuration denotes by C = 400 kg/m3 with tb = 1 min which shows the best increment of boiling curve trend with lowest wall superheat ΔT = 25 K and critical heat flux enhancement of 2.02 times.

Flow Boiling Heat Transfer

Abstract The effect of solid particle introduction on subcooled-forced flow boiling heat transfer and a critical heat flux was examined experimentally. In the experiment, glass beads of 0.6 mm diameter were mixed in subcooled water. Experiments were conducted in a range of the subcooling of 40 K, a velocity of 0.17–6.7 m/s, a volumetric particle ratio of 0–17%. When particles were introduced, the growth of a superheated liquid layer near a heat trasnsfer surface seemed to be suppressed and the onset of nucleate boiling was delayed. The particles promoted the condensation of bubbles on the heat transfer surface, which shifted the initiation of a net vapor generation to a high heat flux region. Boiling heat trasnfer was augmented by the particle introduction. The suppression of the growth of the superheated liquid layer and the promotion of bubble condensation and dissipation by the particles seemed to contribute that heat transfer augmentation. The wall superheat at the critical heat flux was elevated by the particle introduction and the critical heat flux itself was also enhanced. However, the degree of the critical heat flux improvement was not drastic.
