Mixed Convection Film Boiling of a Binary Mixture on a Horizontal Cylinder Embedded in a Porous-Medium
A theoretical analysis has been developed to study the effects of liquid subcooling and velocity on the film boiling heat transfer process from a horizontal cylinder to a binary liquid mixture of various concentrations in a porous medium. The governing equations are solved by means of similarity transformations. The resulting set of ordinary differential equations are numerically solved by the fourth-order Runge Kutta method combined with a shooting technique. Heat transfer results are obtained for a range of operating conditions.
