Fluid modeling of critical heat flux in uniformly heated annuli
From international symposium on two-phase systems; Haifa, Israel (29 Aug 1971). See CONF-710836-. Results of an experimental and analytical program to develop Freon-water modeling of critical heat flux in annular geometries are presented. Experimental critical heat flux data were obtained with Freon-12 over a wide range of pressure and mass flux. These were compared with water data using Ahmad's compensated distortion model. A critical heat flux correlation for annular geometries which is independent of fluid types was developed from the Freon data and subsequently applied to published water data. It was concluded that adequate modeling of critical heat flux in an annular geometry can be obtained provided the size of the model and prototype is identical. (auth)
