Abstract
Nucleate pool boiling heat transfer coefficients for pure water, pure n-propanol and eight of their mixtures including the azeotrope were measured by using a horizontal electrically heated stainless steel tube of 3.35 mm O.D. and 9.8 cm long as heating element. This binary system was chosen for the reason that it is suitable for simultaneous investigation of the mass diffusion effect (the F effect), the effect of slowing down in bubble growth rate caused by the exhaustion of the volatile component near the vapor-liquid interface, the Marangoni effect (the M effect), the effect of surface tension gradient caused by the evaporation of the component of lower surface tension, and the dynamic surface effect (the Y effect), the effect of surface tension gradient caused by the stretching of vapor-liquid interface, on the boiling heat transfer rate in mixture. It is concluded that the mass diffusion effect can qualitatively account for the experimental results of the system. The discrepancy between the experiment...
