Abstract

the void fraction and liquid temperature in a heated channel - are solved by neglecting the slip veloclty and assuming that there is no nucleation in the bulk liquid. In agreement with the experimental data for uniformly heated channels, the general solution of the void fraction equations predicts a sigraoidal vapor fraction profile. Theoretical temperature profiles show that, even in the high void fraction region, thermal equilibrium is not attained in the channel, indicating that the void profiles at high vapor fractions are still a complicated function of the liquid velocity, heat flux, vapor productlon, and channel spacing.
