  • A New Approach of Computational Fluid Dynamics Studying Power Transient Critical Heat Flux

    Creator:
    Chen, Tsung-Wen
    Abstract:
    Power transient boiling has been studied for decades, however, the mechanistic understanding of phenomena which occur during such an event remains incomplete. Due to a dearth of systematic researches, the information of studied phenomenon, detailed physics and applicable hypothesis are very limited. Transient critical heat flux (CHF) is paramount in...

  • The Development of a Mechanistic Critical Heat Flux Correlation

    Creator:
    Luitjens, Jeffrey M.
    Abstract:
    A mechanistic based critical heat flux (CHF) correlation has been developed derived from a mass, momentum, and energy balance at a nucleation site for water. The trigger mechanism for the CHF condition is postulated to be related to the maximum boiling frequency on a heated surface. It is observed that...
