Thermosiphon Reboilers with Enhanced Tubes

Abstract: Reliable heat exchangers capable of transferring heat at low driving temperature differences are key to energy efficient processes. In this paper, heat transfer and fluid dynamics of hydrophobic nanoparticle (HBNP) coated tubes are investigated in a steam-heated single-tube thermosiphon reboiler and compared to experimental results of standard stainless steel tubes. In comparison to the bare tube, the coated tube showed higher heat transfer and circulation rates as well as an improved stability of the circulat… Show more

“…This submerged condition stabilizes operation in the lower operation range. For the second option the following heat transfer enhancement techniques were investigated for thermosiphon reboilers: swirl‐flow devices: wire matrix inserts 4–7, static mixer inserts, twisted tape inserts, and helically coiled wire inserts 6, extended surfaces: finned tubes 5, treated surfaces: hydrophobic nanoparticle coated tubes 8 and displaced enhancement devices: pillow plates 3, 9. …”

“…The mechanisms underlying enhanced pool boiling heat transfer have been investigated in past few decades for efficient design of reboilers (Thome, 1988;Lavrikov et al, 2015), heat exchangers (Antonelli and O'Neill, 1981;Ohta et al, 2004), power electronics (Kercher et al, 2003;Wei et al, 2009;Sadaghiani et al, 2017;Sinha-Ray et al, 2017;Zhang et al, 2018;Chauhan and Kandlikar, 2019), and other high temperature engineering applications (Konishi and Mudawar, 2015;Mudawar, 2017). This is attributed to high heat transfer efficiencies or heat dissipation exhibited by pool boiling due to the absorption of large amount of latent heat which is accompanied by phase change from liquid to vapor (Kandlikar, 2019;Amalfi et al, 2020).…”
