Item type:Publication, Pool boiling heat transfer enhancement of distilled water with passive rotating blades installed above the heating surface(2017-01-01); ; Wongwises, SomchaiThis study examined the pool boiling heat transfer of distilled water on a copper heating surface with passive rotating blades installed above the heating surface. The rotating blades were made from copper material, with a diameter of 30 mm, a core of 5 mm, a length of 50 mm, and a blade angle of 90°. The number of blades in this experiment varied between 2, 3, and 4. The study examined the effects of a varying number of blades and the distance between the heating surface and rotating blades (L<inf>SB</inf>) on the pool boiling heat transfer coefficient. The experimental results show that, when compared under the same conditions, the rotor with four blades yielded a higher heat transfer coefficient than those with two and three blades. This is because the added blades increased the area that received strike force from the bubbles. As a result, the rotating blades created more disturbance of the working fluid over the heating surface. Furthermore, when compared with the same number of blades, the L<inf>SB</inf> of 5 mm yielded a higher heat transfer coefficient than the L<inf>SB</inf> of 15 or 25 mm. This is because the increased L<inf>SB</inf> provided less chance for the bubbles to strike the rotating blades. Hence, the rotating blades did not create a disturbance of the working fluid over the heating surface.
