Abstract
The specific transient phenomenon under consideration is the outlet flowrate of subcooled liquid from a tube-type condenser where complete condensation takes place. Experimental data are presented which indicates that a small change in the inlet vapor flow-rate will momentarily cause a very large transient surge in the outlet flowrate of subcooled liquid. These experimentally measured flow transients are predicted quite accurately using a system mean void fraction model. Also, some preliminary results are presented which indicate the influence of throttling at the condenser outlet as a means of attenuating the transient overshoot characteristics.
