Abstract
This paper presents the experimental investigation of the degradation of heat transfer accompanying an ascending flow of a steam-water mixture and the development of an engineering method for calculating supercritical heat transfer in a vertical annular channel with bilateral heating. The experimental setup is described. The temperature of the exothermic surfaces from the indications of the thermocouples are determined taking into account their individual calibration, the temperature drops in the wall, and thermal losses. The temperature distribution along the length and periphery of the exothermic surfaces of the annular channel is shown and the dependence of the critical steam content on the power fed to the outer wall of the channel with different mass velocities is presented.
