Study of nitrogen and neon pool boiling on a short vertical pipe

Abstract
An experimental study in the behavior of nitrogen and neon pool boiling was performed. The test section consisted of a vertical pipe 3 in. O.D. × 7½ in. long. The variables studied are: heat input, submergence, and surface finish. Several copper heaters were tested, in addition to nickel and cadmium plated heaters. The results were correlated for nitrogen by an equation which gave an average deviation of ± 16% for all the heaters except the cadmium plated heater. The paper describes the experimental equipment and technique, summarizes the data, and compares them to literature values and equations.
