Description

A transfer function to describe boiling dynamics has been developed analytically. A system for control of the heater temperature in a boiling process was developed and constructed. Using this system, dynamic measurements were performed for pool boiling and experimental transfer functions were developed. Flow boiling dynamics were then investigated. Results obtained for nucleate and negative h region operation have been presented. The present study concerns film region flow boiling dynamics. (orig.)
