Introduction:
Boiling is the process of heating a liquid to its saturation temperature and converting it to vapor.
When the pressure supplied to a hot liquid is lowered, a similar reaction occurs, which is known
as flashing. There is liquid in contact with the surface in both circumstances, and heat transfer is
good.
A heating element is horizontally mounted inside a vertical glass chamber submerged in coolant
in the Boiling Heat Transfer Unit, or "TCEB." This heating element is connected to a coolant-
contact cylindrical copper sleeve. A contact temperature sensor is attached to this conductive
cylinder and will measure the temperature of the hot surface. A second temperature sensor, on
the other hand, detects the temperature of the coolant.
Working Principle:
The more energetic molecules shift to a gas, spread out, and create bubbles when the water boils.
These make their way to the surface and into the atmosphere. The transition from a liquid to a
gas necessitates the use of energy. Furthermore, as gas molecules leave a liquid, they take away
its thermal energy. To adjust the heat flux and hence the mode of boiling, the heat input can be
modified. Cooling water passes through a coil at the top of the cylinder. The vapour created by
the heat input condenses, and the liquid formed returns to the cylinder's bottom for re-
evaporation.
Working principle:
Cooling in this experiment is done by some basic principles like radiation, convection or
conduction and evaporation.
