Boiling Two basic types of boiling: • Pool boiling • Occurs on heated surface submerged in a liquid pool which is not agitated • Flow boiling • Occurs in flowing stream • Boiling surface may be a portion of flow passage • Flow of liquid and vapor important type of 2 phase flow
Regime 1: • Wire surface temperature is only a few degrees higher than the surrounding saturated liquid • Natural convection currents circulate the superheated liquid • Evaporation occurs at the free liquid surface as the superheated liquid reaches that position
Regime 2: • Increase in wire temperature is accompanied by the formation of vapor bubbles on the wire surface • These bubbles form at certain surface sites, where vapor bubble nuclei are present, break off and condense before reaching the free liquid surface At a higher surface temperature, as in regime III, larger and more numerous bubbles form, break away from the wire surface, rise, and reach the free surface. Regimes II & III are associated with nucleate boiling.
Regime IV: • Beyond the peak of the curve the transition boiling regime is entered. • A vapor film forms around the wire, and portions of this film break off and rise, briefly exposing a portion of the wire surface • This film collapse and reformation and this unstable nature of the film is characteristic of the transition regime. • When present, the vapor film provides a considerable resistance to heat transfer, thus the heat flux decreases.
surface tension Nub = Cfc Rebm PrLn Refer to Appendix 6 for Detailed Derivation.
Condensation • Occurs when a vapor contacts a surface which is at a temperature below the saturation temperature of the vapor. • When the liquid condensate forms on the surface, it will flow under the influence of gravity.
Film Condensation • Normally the liquid wets the surface, spreads out and forms a film. • Dropwise Condensation • If the surface is not wetted by the liquid, then droplets form and run down the surface, coalescing as they contact other condensate droplets.
4A rLu Re = P mf Film Condensation: Turbulent-Flow Analysis • It is logical to expect the flow of the condensate film to become turbulent for relatively long surfaces or for high condensation rates. • The criterion for turbulent flow is a Reynolds number for the condensate film. • In terms of an equivalent diameter, the applicable Reynolds number is
Dropwise Condensation Dropwise Condensation • Associated with higher heat-transfer coefficients than filmwise condensation phenomenon. • Attractive phenomenon for applications where extremely large heat-transfer rates are desired.
Heat Transfer Equipment • Single-pass heat exchanger – fluid flows through only once. • Parallel or Co-current flow – fluids flow in the same direction. • Countercurrent flow or Counterflow - fluids flow in opposite directions. • Crossflow – two fluids flow at right angles to one another.

Shell-and-tube Arrangement • E.g. Tube-side fluid makes two passes, shell-side fluid makes one pass. • Good mixing of the shell-side fluid makes one pass.
Log-Mean Temperature Difference • Temperature profiles for single-pass double-pipe heat exchanger
Counterflow analysis • Temperature vs. contact area
Log-Mean Temperature Difference (continued) • First-law-of-thermodynamics • Energy transfer between the two fluids
