Abstract:

The paper focuses on the analysis of the enhanced surfaces in such applications as boiling heat transfer.
The surfaces have similar geometric parameters for the surface development. Two testing measurement
modules with enhanced heating surfaces are used independently, one for flow boiling and the other – for
pool boiling research. The heating surfaces with mini-recesses which contact boiling liquid are made by
spark erosion. Flow boiling is studied when FC-72 flows through a horizontally positioned minichannel
and its bottom wall is heated. These experiments were carried out during under a pressure slightly higher
than the atmospheric one. Pool boiling experiments were conducted with FC-72 at atmospheric pressure
in the vessel using enhanced sample as the bottom heating surface. Comparison of results for flow and
pool boiling indicates that obtained heat transfer coefficients are a few times higher for pool boiling in
the boiling incipience conditions. There are basic differences in the local heat transfer coefficients during
the development of flow boiling in a minichannel, depending on the location along the flow in the channel.
In the subcooled boiling area, heat transfer coefficients are low. In developed boiling, they are high,
but they decrease when the amount of vapour in the liquid–vapour mixture rises
