Experiments indicated that steady dropwise condensation of steam at atmospheric pressure occurred. The condensation heat transfer coefficients increased by approximately 3 and 5－7 times for the polytrimethylvinylsilane film and polytetrafluoroethylene film respectively, compared with the value for film condensation under the same experimental conditions. The temperatures on the condensing surface and inside the test block were found to be rapidly and randomly fluctuated. The properties of the coated films and advantages of the methods used in this investigation were discussed briefly.展开更多

In the present study, Navier-Stokes equations were solved numerically using a 3rd-order MUSCL type TVD finitedifference scheme with a second-order fractionabetep for time integration. Baldwin-Lomax model, that is the algebraic model, called the zero equation model was used in the computations. The effects of initial conditions (initial degree of supersaturation and total temperature in the reservoir) on condensing fiow of moist air in a supersonic circular half nozzle were investigated. In this case, the effect of condensation on the boundary layer was also discussed in detail. As a result, the simulated flow fields were compared with experimental data in good agreement, and the velocity and temperature profiles were largely changed by condensation.展开更多

In this paper, a new electric capacitance tomography(ECT) sensor was designed for the visualization measurement in a liquid by removing the shielding case and sealing with insulating hydrophobic material. It was successfully used to measure the condensation process in a thermosyphon under different operating temperatures. The thermosyphon was made of silica glass, and alcohol was used as a working fluid. The alcohol vapor was cooled to condense through the heat convection with the cooling water. The operating temperature was controlled by a heater with different power outputs. The experimental results show that the alcohol vapor condensed in stripes and unevenly on the wall surface at a low operating temperature. The liquid bridge will be formed periodically at the operating temperature of 90?C, and the time interval between two liquid bridges will be shorter with the increase of the operating temperature. At 117?C or even higher operating temperatures, the complete liquid bridge cannot be formed sometimes due to the difference of the growth rate of the surface wave around the circumference.展开更多
