G. Bloch
Abstract
Critical heat flux (CHF) is an important effect in boiling heat transfer, but the effects causing it still remain to be fully understood. An overview of current mechanistic CHF models is presented, and experiments for validation are discussed.
Kurzfassung
Die kritische Wärmestromdichte (critical heat flux, CHF) ist ein wichtiger Effekt bei der Wärmeübertragung durch Sieden, dessen Ursachen bislang noch nicht vollständig geklärt sind. Ein Überblick über aktuelle mechanistische Modelle zum CHF wird vorgestellt und Experimente zur Validierung der Modellannahmen diskutiert.
