TL;DR: In this paper, an experimental investigation was made of the turbulent vapor cavity formed by a steam jet discharging into a subcooled liquid water both considering both constant area and convergent-divergent steam injectors of various external geometries.
Abstract: An experimental investigation was made of the lenght of the turbulent vapor cavity formed by a steam jet discharging into a subcooled liquid water both. The experiments considered both constant area and convergent-divergent steam injectors of various external geometries. The tests were conducted with the bath at atmospheric pressure, bath temperatures in the range 301–358K, injector exit diameters in the range 0.00040–0.0112 m, for choked injector flows having mass velocities in the range 332–2050 kg/m2.s. These conditions yielded injector exit Reynolds numbers from 2 to 150 × 104. Over this range a correlation was developed to yield the length of the vapor cavity as a function of the injector diameter, exit mass velocity, and a driving potential for the condensation process. The heat transfer coefficients for this condensation process were found to be significantly greater than those encountered in turbulent film condensation processes in the vicinity of tubes and walls.

TL;DR: In this paper, two identical units of heat flow meter panels were used for the experiment and were mounted side by side on the exterior surface of the building and were maintained at slightly different temperatures and the heat flux conducted toward the surface from inside was measured.
Abstract: Two identical units of heat flow meter panels were used for the experiment and were mounted side by side on the exterior surface of the building. They were maintained at slightly different temperatures and the heat flux conducted toward the surface from inside was measured. The two panels received exactly the same incident radiation so the difference in the measured heat conduction was equal to the difference in heat loss by convection and long wave emission. The convective heat transfer coefficient was calculated from the temperature of the two surfaces and the emissivity.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this article, the authors studied strong nonlinear heat transport across a porous layer using Howard's (1963) variational method and provided the theoretical bounding heat-transport curve, which is consistent with the result of the well-known dimensional argument leading to the one-third power law for regular convection.
Abstract: Strongly nonlinear heat transport across a porous layer is studied using Howard's (1963) variational method. The analysis explores a bifurcation property of Busse's (1969) multi-a solution of this variational problem and complements the 1972 study of Busse & Joseph by further restricting the fields which are allowed to compete for the maximum heat transported a t a given temperature difference. The restriction arises, as in the case of infinite Prandtl number convection studied by Chan (1971), from letting a parameter tend to infinity from the outset; here, however, the parameter which is assumed infinitely large (the Prandtl-Darcy number) is actually seldom smaller than O(107).The theoretical bounding heat-transport curve is computed numerically. The maximizing Nusselt number (Nu) curve is given a t first by a functional of the single-a solution; then this solution bifurcates and the Nusselt number functional is maximized for an interval of Rayleigh numbers (R) by the two-a solution. The agreement between the numerical analysis and recent experiments is striking. The theoretical heat-transport curve is found to be continuously differentiable but has piecewise discontinuous second derivatives.The results of an asymptotic (R → ∞) analysis following Chan (1971) are in qualitative agreement with the results of numerical analysis and give the asymptotic law Nu = 0.016R. This law is consistent with the result of the porous version of the well-known dimensional argument leading to the one-third power law for regular convection. The asymptotic results, however, do not appear to be in good quantitabive agreement with the numerical results.

TL;DR: In this article, structural properties of the Al-Cu alloys were studied as a function of the following solidification conditions at the substrate chill: a) heat sink capacity; b) surface microprofile; c) nature of the liquid metal fluid flow as it makes substrate contact.
Abstract: Structures and substructures in the chill zone have been studied in Al-Cu alloys as a function of the following solidification conditions at the substrate chill: a) heat sink capacity; b) surface microprofile; c) nature of the liquid metal fluid flow as it makes substrate contact. The parameters taken in account both experimentally and analytically are: heat transfer coefficient of the metal/mold interface, surface rugosity of the mold walls, and the Reynolds number of the liquid metal fluid flow. The results obtained show definite correlations between the structural characteristics of the chill zone and the values of the studied parameters.

TL;DR: In this paper, a physical model for the rewetting of a hot dry patch is proposed, where the mechanisms governing the rate of resorption of the dry area are the conduction of heat from the dry to the wet area and the removal of this heat by a large local heat-transfer coefficient.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this paper, the thermal conductivities of argon, krypton, and nitrogen were measured at 760 mm Hg in the temperature range 800-2000°K and two thermal conductivity columns of different outside diameters were used in the experiments to provide an assessment of the convective heat transfer.
Abstract: The thermal conductivities of argon, krypton, and nitrogen were measured at 760 mm Hg in the temperature range 800–2000°K. Two thermal conductivity columns of different outside diameters were used in the experiments to provide an assessment of the convective heat transfer. In addition, potential leads were employed to minimize convection and end effects. The thermal conductivity values obtained were compared with existing data, with results of viscosity measurements, and with theoretical predictions.
