Development of experimental data bank on heat transfer crisis under stationary conditions

The development of an experimental data bank on heat transfer orisis under stationary conditions is discussed. The work is being carried out under the auspices of CMEA in compliance with the resolution of CMEA countries experts meetinq in January 1981 held in Moscow. The data bank is supposed to be formed as a sequential set of available experimental data on the regimes with heat-transfer crisis, recorded on a standard magnetic tape for ES or IBM comuter family. All operations with the bank are to be performed via the computer. Recommendations are given to what the record structure should be used and an example of a code is suggested for a user to extract data from the bank in accordance with various criteria. At the present time parameters of more than 12000 experimental regimes are prepared for the bank and some 3000 more are being processed
