Critical heat flux with subcooled boiling of water at low pressure

  • 1. China Inst. of Atomic Energy, Beijing, BJ (China)

Description

The critical heat flux experiment has been performed in round tubes of 10 and 16 mm in diameter with different heating length, covering the range of pressure 1.5-16.7 bar, velocity 1.4-15.4 m/s and exit subcooling 30-136 K. The experimental data and empirical correlations are presented. Based on the results an evaluation of some correlations and 1995 CHF look-up table is made. For the conditions tested the effect of diameter on the critical heat flux is found to be related to the liquid velocity. (author)
