Performance of heat transfer mechanism in nucleate pool boiling -a relative approach of contribution to various heat transfer components

Abstract

Nucleate pool steaming is an effective mode of transfer of heat that helps to reduce the use of fossil fuels and thus reduce pollution. Transfer of heat in nucleate pool steaming is examined to occur through the combination of natural convection, enhanced latent heat and convection transport. At the intermediate heat flux range, all three components play a principal character. In the elevated flux of heat area as the heat flux increases the enhanced convection contribution decreases while latent heat transport contribution has been found to increase considerably. In this study, we attempt to develop a heat transfer relationship for the coefficient of transfer of heat and suggested based on the relative benefactions of three components to the boiling flux of heat. The current work stressed the absolute motion of warmth guaranteeing from the summation of each of the three segments of regular convection, upgraded convection and idle warmth transport for water and methanol with round mathematical formed. The hypotheses of air pocket development in nucleate pool bubbling hypothesize for a significant bit of warmth move to the air pocket happens by conduction through a fluid microlayer framed on the warmed surface has been thought of. The maximum deviation of error between the present analytical and experimental one for water, methanol, ethanol and benzene is 6.89%, 5.24%, 5.64% and 6.21% respectively. The highest divergence in the middle of the forecasted data and different (analytical and investigational) outcomes is found to be ±2.54. Results from many other investigators have also been compared for the better visualization of heat transfer correlations to the present one. The highest divergence in the middle of the forecasted data and investigational one for Nusselt number is observed to be ±3.27 along with the present analytical ones.
