Experimental study of heat transfer of dielectric liquid perfluorohexane at flowboiling in a microchannel heat exchanger

详细

Presented are results of an experimental study of local heat transfer characteristics in boiling of the dielectric liquid perfluorohexane under forced convection in a horizontal microchannel heat exchanger. The experiments with a copper microchannel heat exchanger comprising 21 channels with sections of 335 × 930 μm were conducted with a mass velocity of 250 to 1000 kg/m²s and a heat flux through the outer wall of the heat exchanger of 3 to 60 W/cm². The dependence of the local heat transfer coefficient on the heat flux density on the inner wall of the microchannels was established, as well as the critical heat flux. The experimental data are compared with calculations based on known models of heat transfer.
