DESCRIPTION:
The present setup is designed to study the critical heat flux of a given nichrome wire. The setup consists of temperature controlled water bath with controller. Temperature of the waterbath can be varied from ambient to 80°C to achieve different environment for nichrome wire. Test heater wire is placed in the bath & voltage is varied by variac provided. The system is complete with digital temperature controller, voltmeter, and ammeter & voltage control facility.
EXPERIMENTATION:
- To determine the critical heat flux of given wire
- To study the pool boiling phenomenon upto Critical Heat flux point
UTILITIES REQUIRED:
- Electricity Supply: 1 Phase, 220 V AC, 5 Amp.
- Water supply: Initial fill
- Floor Drain
- Floor area: 1.0m x 0.75 m
- Nichrome wire : 40 swg
