Heat transfer in natural circulation reboilers: the effect of tube geometry
thesis
posted on 2018-08-15, 08:58 authored by B.A. AbidThe effect of the tube geometry was investigated in a natural circulation single tube reboiler. Two stainless steel tubes
of different dimensions (the first being 0.5” i.d, 0.625” o.d. and 4 ft heated length; the second being 0.872” i.d, 1” o.d. and 6 ft heated length) were used. Both tubes were assembled
from sections of 8” length, each section was heated by its
own steam jacket. Test liquids temperatures were measured by
thermocouples along the test tube. A pressure transducer at
the inlet of the tube was used to record the static pressure
fluctuations using a UV recorder. Distilled water and water–ethylene–glycol solutions were used as test liquids. Heat
flux for each section was measured. [Continues.]
