Abstract
The flow of an aqueous film along a vertical heater was studied for Reynolds numbers of 33, 50, and 105 and initial temperatures T0 = 15, 23, 30, and 40°С. It was shown that the amplitudes of the zigzag motion of the rivulets increased with increasing heat flux density. The most intensive growth of amplitudes was observed with the development of thermocapillary instability in the upper part of the heater. For high heat fluxes, when the amplitude of the zigzag motion reached a sufficiently large value, interaction of the rivulets began. Several types of interaction of rivulets on the surface of the heated liquid film were distinguished. It was shown that the appearance of a thermocapillary structure in the upper part of the heater led to movement of rivulets and an increase in the heat transfer intensity.
期刊介绍:
High Temperature is an international peer reviewed journal that publishes original papers and reviews written by theoretical and experimental researchers. The journal deals with properties and processes in low-temperature plasma; thermophysical properties of substances including pure materials, mixtures and alloys; the properties in the vicinity of the critical point, equations of state; phase equilibrium; heat and mass transfer phenomena, in particular, by forced and free convections; processes of boiling and condensation, radiation, and complex heat transfer; experimental methods and apparatuses; high-temperature facilities for power engineering applications, etc. The journal reflects the current trends in thermophysical research. It presents the results of present-day experimental and theoretical studies in the processes of complex heat transfer, thermal, gas dynamic processes, and processes of heat and mass transfer, as well as the latest advances in the theoretical description of the properties of high-temperature media.
