E-raamat: Boiling Heat Transfer And Two-Phase Flow [Taylor & Francis e-raamat]

Completely updated, this graduate text describes the current state of boiling heat transfer and two-phase flow, in terms through which students can attain a consistent understanding. Prediction of real or potential boiling heat transfer behaviour, both in steady and transient states, is covered to aid engineering design of reliable and effective systems.

Describes the current state of knowledge in boiling heat transfer and two-phase flow for students who need a consistent and thorough understanding of the phenomena. Prediction of real or potential boiling heat transfer behavior, both in steady and transient states, is also covered to aid engineering design of reliable and effective systems. A survey of the extensive research on liquid-metal boiling is included. Applications to high heat and flux equipment, such as nuclear reactors, are emphasized.

This second edition provides reliable information in predicting the thermal hydraulic behavior of boiling devices and two-phase flow. It contains formulas for predicting real or potential boiling heat transfer behavior. Emphasis is on applications to high heat flux equipment, such as nuclear reactors, and they are presented throughout the book.
