Abstract

Augmentation of CHF by ultrasonic vibration in water pool is experimentally investigated under pool boiling condition. The experiments are carried out using copper coated plates and distilled water. Measurements of CHF on flat plate heated surface were made with and without ultrasonic wave and with variations in inclined angle of the surface and water subcooling. Experimental apparatus consists of a bath, power supply, test section, ultrasonic generator, and data acquisition system. The measurements show that ultrasonic wave enhances CHF and its extent is dependent upon inclination angle as well as water subcooling. The rate of increase in CHF increases with an increase in water subcooling while it decreases with an increase in inclination angle. Visual observation shows that the cause of CHF augmentation is closely related with the dynamic behavior of bubble generation and departure in acoustic field.

본 연구는 초음파 진동의 영향을 받는 풀비등 조건에서의 CHF 열전달 촉진현상을 이해하기 위해 수행되었다. 평판에 얇은 구리박판이 덮여 있는 시료와 증류수를 냉각제로 사용하여 초음파 유무, 경사각도의 변화 및 물의 과냉도 변화에 대하여 평판 가열면에서의 CHF를 측정하였다. 실험장치는 수조, 전원공급장치, 시험부, 초음파 발생장치, 데이터 획득장치 등으로 구성되었다. 실험조건은 3가지 과냉도에 대한 실험과 6가지 시편의 경사각도를 변화시켜 수행되었다. 측정값을 통해 초음파 진동이 CHF를 증진시키며, 그 영향은 경사각의 변화뿐만 아니라 과냉도에 따라서 크기가 달라지는 것을 알 수 있다. 초음파 진동에 의한 CHF증가율은 과냉도가 커질수록, 그리고 시편의 경사각도가 수직에서 수평하향 방향으로 기울어질수록 증가하였다. 가시화 실험을 통해 CHF 증가의 원인이 음장에서 기포 생성과 이탈의 동적거동과 밀접하게 관련되어 있음을 확인하였다.
