Boiling Process MODEL TH 073
* Demonstration of evaporation in a double-wall pipe evaporator made of glass
* Operation with harmless, special low boiling point liquid
Item Description
During the generation of vapour, the medium that is to evaporate runs through different flow forms dependent on the heat transfer area. The medium flows into a tube evaporator as a single-phase fluid and exits the tube evaporator as single-phase superheated vapour. In practice, the water vapour generated in big systems is used e.g. for heating plants or machine drives. To design steam generators, it is important to have knowledge of the evaporation process with the boiling crises in order to ensure reliable operation. Boiling crises are caused by a sudden deterioration of the heat transfer, whereby the high heat flux density leads to a dangerous increase in the wall temperature.
Sci-tech Evaporation Process Model TH 073 experimental unit can be used to examine and visualise the
evaporation process in its various flow forms. This is done by heating evaporating liquid, Solkatherm, in a
tube evaporator made of glass. Compared with water, this liquid has the advantage that its boiling point is at
36,7°C (1013hPa), whereby the entire evaporation process takes place at much lower temperatures and a
lower heating power. The pressure can be varied via the cooling circuit. Negative pressure (vacuum) can be
generated by a water jet pump in the cooling circuit.
The well-structured instructional material sets out the fundamentals and provides a step-by-step guide
through the experiments.
