Observe two-phase flow through inverted-U shape tube with temperature and pressure variation.
?
Trace cavitation bubbles (by sudden pressure drop) and boiling bubble (by heating).
?
Identify the mechanism of gas accumulation using ultrasonic transducer, and measure the characteristics of two-phase flows using impedence meter and high-speed camera.
Flow Instability in a narrow rectangular channel
Experimental study on ONB, OSV, and OFI incipient for a narrow rectangular channel heated from one side
?
Constant mass flux approach is consistent with constant heat flux approach
?
Influence of mass flux, heat flux, and inlet subcooled temperature on the ONB and OFI phenomena is observed.
