Convective boiling heat transfer coefficient, $h_{\mbox{\protect\scriptsize c}}$

The convective boiling heat transfer coefficient, $h_{\mbox{\protect\scriptsize c}}$ is defined by

\begin{displaymath}
h_{\mbox{\protect\scriptsize c}} \;\hbox{$=$\kern-0.68em\raise1.1ex
\hbox{$\scriptscriptstyle\triangle$}}\;h_{1\phi} F
\end{displaymath} (11.44)

where
l
single-phase liquid heat transfer coefficient given by a slightly modified version of (11.37),

\begin{displaymath}
h_c = C \left[
\frac{\mbox{$<\!{G}\!>$}(1-\mbox{$<\!{x}\!>...
...k_\ell} \right]_m^{0.33} \left(
\frac{k_\ell}{D_H} \right)_m
\end{displaymath} (11.45)

where C [--] is defined by (11.34) and $<\!{x}\!>$ is the flow quality [--]. Note that the author has exchanged the Dittus-Boelter correlation originally in the Chen correlation with the correlation by El-Genk et al (11.37) since it is appropriate in the rod bundle geometry.

l
the so-called Reynolds number factor [--] which is a hydrodynamic dimensionless parameter to be discussed in the subsequent.

The F-factor is defined by

\begin{displaymath}
F \;\hbox{$=$\kern-0.68em\raise1.1ex
\hbox{$\scriptscripts...
... }{\mbox{\bf Re}_{\mbox{\protect\scriptsize f}}} \right]^{0.8}
\end{displaymath} (11.46)

where $Re_{\mbox{\protect\scriptsize TP}}$ is an effective Reynolds number for the two-phase flow [--] and $\mbox{\bf Re}_f$ is the Reynolds number based on the liquid fraction of the flow [--], ie defined by

\begin{displaymath}
\mbox{\bf Re}_f \;\hbox{$=$\kern-0.68em\raise1.1ex
\hbox{$...
...;\frac{\mbox{$<\!{G}\!>$}(1-\mbox{$<\!{x}\!>$}) D_e}{\mu_\ell}
\end{displaymath} (11.47)

The F-factor being a flow parameter depends only on the turbulent Martinelli parameter, $X_{\mbox{\protect\scriptsize tt}}$ [--], defined by

\begin{displaymath}
\frac{1}{X_{\mbox{\protect\scriptsize tt}}} \;\hbox{$=$\ker...
..._g} \right]^{0.5} \left[ \frac{\mu_g}{\mu_\ell}
\right]^{0.1}
\end{displaymath} (11.48)

Values for $F= F(X_{\mbox{\protect\scriptsize tt}})$ originally shown graphically by Chen at some discrete $[1/X_{\mbox{\protect\scriptsize tt}}]$ values are given in Table 11.1.
