Transient thermal analysis of a cryogenic oxidizer tank in the liquid rocket propulsion system during the prelaunch helium gas pressurization

The transient thermal behavior in the cryogenic oxidizer tank for the liquid propulsion system of the KSLV-I satellite launching space vehicle is theoretically investigated for the pressurization process by gaseous helium injection followed by the readiness check stage. The numerical model is established using the transient mass and energy conservation of oxygen/helium mixtures both in ullage and liquid regions. At the liquid-gas interface, various modes of heat and mass transfer are considered, including the liquid evaporation and the helium absorption. The present study focuses on the effects of the increasing pressurization level on some of important properties that should be considered in the propulsion system design, such as tank pressure, ullage gas temperature, and evaporation of liquid oxygen. Particularly, the tank pressure drop after the pressurization is investigated in the proposed design of propulsion system. Also, the effect of the initial loading of liquid oxygen in the oxidizer tank is studied and discussed. As for the helium absorption into the liquid region, its mass is negligibly small and it should not be the concern in design and operation of the oxidizer tank system.

Boiling crisis in droplets of ethanol water solution on the heating surface

Evaporation of droplets of ethanol water solution on a heated surface is studied experimentally at high heat fluxes. The behavior of water-alcohol mixtures was examined under the conditions of heat transfer crisis. Direct measurement of the current mass of evaporating droplets allows us to study the behavior of liquid batches in significantly nonstationary processes. An insignificant alcohol admixture to water increases significantly the transitional area of the crisis. The maximal length of transitional area corresponds to a mass concentration of alcohol of about 30%. For this concentration the heat transfer coefficient of the water-alcohol solution is maximal. It is shown that addition of highly volatile liquids to water allows efficient control of evaporation rate, which can be used for engineering processes.     

Heat and mass transfer at the ignition of a liquid substance by a single “Hot” particle

The results of a numerical solution to the problem of heat and mass transfer at the ignition of a liquid flammable substance by a single particle heated to a high temperature located on its surface are presented. The problem is solved within the framework of a gas phase model of ignition. A mathematical model is formulated. It describes the following processes in a two-dimensional statement: the heat conduction and evaporation of a flammable liquid and the diffusion and convection of the combustible vapors in the oxidizer medium in the system “particle heated to a high temperature-liquid flammable substance-air.” The numerical investigations established the relation between the ignition delay time, the particle temperature and sizes, and the particle minimum temperature and sizes at which ignition of a combustible liquid is possible.     

Inversion temperature for adiabatic evaporation of liquid into an air-steam mixture

This paper deals with adiabatic evaporation of various liquids into an air-steam mixture and pure superheated steam. The focus is made on the inversion temperature, which means that the rate of liquid evaporation into an air-steam mixture (superheated steam) becomes equal to the rate of evaporation into dry air. A simple analytical solution for finding of inversion temperature was derived, and the required conditions of existence of the given phenomenon are found. The influence of parameters of the main flow (vapor quantity, pressure, and flow regime) on the value of inversion temperature is analysed. It is shown that consideration of the influence of injection flow on relative function of heat transfer for inversion temperature definition of ethanol, acetone, and benzene is necessary. A comparison with numerical modelling was made to estimate the analytical solution accuracy. The work was financially supported by the Russian Foundation for Basic Research (Grants Nos. 05-02-16478 and 05-08-17981), and by President of the Russian Federation (Grant NSh-6965.2006.8).     

A novel combustion system for liquid fuel evaporating and burning

To utilize sustainable biofuel, the current study proposes a novel combustion technique that directly burns liquid ethanol without a spray system. Two swirling air flows are induced by tangentially injected the gas from two concentric tubes at different stages. The liquid ethanol is fed by a liquid tank at the center. At the beginning methane flame assists in preheating the system to vaporize liquid ethanol and ignite the vapor. Thereafter methane is switched off, and liquid ethanol can be continuously vaporized through self-burning released heat. The heat and mass transfer processes are examined to illustrate such self-sustained burning–heating–evaporating system. The ethanol flow rate is gradually increased to provide different heat output. The flame structures, temperature distributions and pollutant emissions are carefully examined. The results show that the ethanol can be steadily burned to provide heat output between 0.7 and 2.5?kW. Generally a blue flame is obtained, and the NO_x and CO concentrations are ultralow. By increasing ethanol flow rate to exceed 8?mL/min, an unsteady, sooting flame is observed owing to incomplete evaporation and poor mixing. A parametric study is conducted to evaluate the influences of liquid tank position, flow rate and tip structure on the combustion characteristics. Additionally, an optimal operation condition is proposed. The current study provides a promising method to burn low-boiling liquid fuel in a clean, efficient and compact way.     

Adiabatic evaporation of binary liquid mixtures on the porous ball surface

Measured data for the temperature of a porous spherical surface to which an evaporating binary liquid mixture was supplied are reported. In the experiments, solutions of ethyl and methyl alcohols in water, and also solutions of acetone in water, were used. The concentration of mixture components was varied throughout the widest possible range of X _L = 0–1, and the temperature of dry air flow past the sphere was in the range t ₀ = 15–300 °C. In the present study, a strong influence of the composition of the mixtures on their adiabatic evaporation temperature was established. In the heat- and mass-transfer process, the air temperature is also of paramount importance. An experimental correlation is obtained which generalizes data on adiabatic evaporation temperature in a broad range of component concentrations and temperatures for the experimentally examined binary liquid mixtures. This work was supported by the Russian Foundation for Basic Research (Grant No. 06-08-39002—GFEN).

3D problem of heat and mass transfer at the ignition of a combustible liquid by a heated metal particle

A nonlinear nonstationary 3D problem of heat and mass transfer at gas phase ignition of a combustible liquid spread on the surface of a solid body by a metal particle heated to a high temperature is solved. This is done within the framework of a model taking into account the heat conduction and evaporation of the liquid, the diffusion and convection of the combustible vapors in the oxidizer medium, the crystallization of the ignition source, the kinetics of the processes of evaporation and ignition of liquids, the dependence of the thermophysical characteristics of the interacting substances on the temperature, and the moisture content of the oxidizer—air. The dependences of the ignition delay time of the liquid on the temperature and sizes of the heating source are established. Limiting values of the temperature and particle sizes at which the ignition conditions take place are determined. The influence of the air humidity on the inertia of the process being investigated is analyzed. A comparison of numerical values of typical parameters of the process under investigation for 2D and 3D models is performed.     

Third heat transfer crisis at subcooling

The effect of liquid subcooling below the saturation temperature on the third heat transfer crisis was studied experimentally at pool boiling. Experimental data on the threshold values of superheating and heat fluxes, above which the evaporation front and third heat transfer crisis for acetone at subcooling from 0.3 to 10 K are formed, were shown. Formation of evaporation fronts is the necessary, but not sufficient condition for the third heat transfer crisis at subcooling. It was found that formation of a stable vapor film after propagation of condensation fronts over the heater surface is possible at heat fluxes considerably lower than the first critical one.     

A beaker without walls: formation of deeply supercooled binary liquid solutions of alcohols from nanoscale amorphous solid films

Layered nanoscale amorphous solid films of methanol and ethanol undergo complete intermixing prior to the onset of measurable desorption at 120 K. This intermixing precedes and inhibits crystallization. Subsequent desorption of the film is described quantitatively by a kinetic model describing evaporation from a continuously mixed ideal binary liquid solution. This occurs at temperatures below the melting point of the binary mixture, indicating ideal behavior for the supercooled liquid solution. This approach provides a new method for preparing and examining deeply supercooled solutions.     

Simultaneous determination of the composition and temperature gradients in the vicinity of boiling bubbles in liquid binary mixtures using one‐dimensional Raman measurements

The ability to transport large quantities of heat by nucleate boiling is reduced for mixtures compared to their pure components. To study the heat and mass transfer during the boiling process, a one‐dimensional Raman spectroscopy setup was applied to measure, for the first time to the best of our knowledge, the composition and temperature gradients in the vicinity of single boiling bubbles of a mixture of acetone and isopropanol. A novel evaluation strategy allowed the simultaneous detection of the mixture composition and temperature from the C H and the O H Raman spectra. The composition gradients arise because of rectification effects, which cause unlike compositions in the gas and liquid phases. Heat transfer from the boiling bubble to the surrounding liquid induces temperature gradients. High temporal and spatial resolution measurements using an imaging spectrograph and an electron multiplying charge‐coupled device camera revealed large composition and temperature gradients with similar shapes. The accuracy of the composition results was validated by a species conservation calculation. Copyright © 2010 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Molecular simulation of binary phase diagrams from the osmotic equilibrium method: vapour pressure and activity in water–ethanol mixtures

ABSTRACT

Herein, an approach for simulating phase diagrams of binary mixtures is presented, where a bulk liquid and its corresponding vapour phase are simulated by means of molecular dynamics using explicit polarisation. Time-averaged density profiles for the pure compounds and mixtures at different mole fractions provide information about the spatial distribution in the bulk liquid and the amount of evaporated species in the adjacent vapour phase. The activities in the liquid phase are calculated from the mean vapour phase densities at a given composition, providing a good qualitative agreement compared to experimental data and the precision of the method follows a previously developed Poisson model of evaporation. With the Redlich–Kister approach for the activities in a binary mixture, the directly obtained activities are fitted providing corrected activity coefficients of the two species. This method is applied to ethanol water mixtures at different mole fractions. The obtained structural data are in good agreement with experimental data and time-averaged density profiles provide a detailed insight into the composition of the liquid–vapour interface. An azeotropic point is obtained for an excess concentration of ethanol at 87% as percentage by mass compared to the experimental value of 95%.

Heat transfer at evaporation of falling films of Freon mixture on the smooth and structured surfaces

The paper presents the results of experimental investigation of heat transfer and hydrodynamics of falling films of binary mixtures of R21 and R114 freons on the surfaces with complex configuration. The vertical tubes of 50-mm diameter with the smooth and structured surfaces, made of D16T alloy, were used as the working sections. The range of film Reynolds number at the inlet to the working section was Re =10÷155. The image of wave surface of the falling liquid film was visualized and recorded by a high-speed digital video camera. At evaporation the heat transfer coefficients on the smooth and structured surfaces are determined by the liquid flow rate and weakly depend on the heat flux. At low liquid flows, the heat transfer coefficients on the structured surface decrease in comparison with the smooth surface because of liquid accumulation and enlargement of efficient thickness in microtexture channels. At high liquid flows, a change in the structure of the wave film surface leads to an increase in heat transfer coefficients in comparison with the smooth surface.
