Towards understanding the critical heat flux for industrial applications

ICONE19-43196 Prediction of Periodic Dryout Critical Heat Flux under Flow Oscillation Condition

“…1 shows the new correlation presents a reasonable predictive accuracy with a total mean deviation of 7.8%. However, CHF is expected to occur under transient conditions rather than under steady-state conditions (Ahmed et al 2010). Therefore, it is of great significance to investigate transient CHF for the safety evaluation of nuclear reactors under transient conditions.…”

An energy model for the transient flow boiling crisis under highly subcooled conditions at atmospheric pressure

“…Many reviews on the subject have been published e.g. by Celata [10,11], Kandlikar [12], Zhang and Mudawar [13] or Ahmed [14]. In the last decades, one of the most featured approach is the so-called…”

A mathematic model considering the effect of Brownian motion for subcooled nucleate pool boiling of dilute nanofluids

“…It is also one of the most desirable forms as high heat flux can be transferred with a relatively low surface superheat compared to the other regimes of the boiling. However, the implementation of nucleate boiling regime has been restricted by the critical heat flux (CHF) [2]. It has been widely proved that nanofluids have great potentials in enhancing the ability of heat transfer and increasing the critical heat flux (CHF) of boiling [3].…”
