Transient pool boiling from downward-facing curved surfaces

Estimation of heat flux in array of jets quenching using experimental and inverse finite element method

“…Guo and El-Genk (1992), and El-Genk and Guo (1993) conducted experiments on the inclined surfaces with a downward flow and reported that the nucleate boiling heat flux decreases as the angle of inclination is increased. Further, El-Genk and Glebov (1995) studied the influence of curved surfaces and proved that through the curved surface, heat extraction can be maximized. Klinzing et al (1992) developed the film and transition boiling correlations for quenching of hot surfaces with water sprays.…”

Subcooled pool boiling of water on a downward-facing stainless steel disk in a gap

“…The results for subcooled boiling show that the heat transfer coefficient decreases with a reduction in the distance between the plates. El-genk and Glebov (1995) performed quenching experiments to investigate the effects of wall thickness on pool boiling from downward curved surfaces using water as the working fluid. Local and average pool boiling curves were obtained under saturation and subcooling conditions.…”
