The solidification of water vapor on cold metal surfaces increases the friction of contacting liquids is an unavoidable factor, so we experimented with a uniform atmospheric pressure and relative humidity environment. The paramount purpose of this experiment was to avail oneself of the change in viscosity due to temperature change and the change in radius of copper cylinder to understand its effect on droplet impact conducting heat and freezing. The results show that the substrate viscosity (frost layer) has marginal effect on the time for a droplet to reach maximum diffusion in the two main droplet movement directions. In addition, droplet diffusion on cold cylindrical copper surfaces consists of three processes: spreading stage, transitional stage and steady stage. Among these three phases, power function fitting works best in the spreading stage. Besides, we have used the composite spreading coefficient <span>(gamma)</span> to describe the speed of spreading. For any radius cylinder, the cooler the temperature, the bigger the average value of the composite spreading coefficient <span>(gamma)</span> below 0°C than above 0°C. The larger the composite spreading coefficient <span>(gamma)</span> is, the more slowly the droplet dimensionless spreading arc length changes with dimensionless time. Moreover, droplets between 0°C and −5°C sometimes show post-collision supercooling, which is related to surface viscosity instability and the contribution of surface shape to droplet retraction.</p>","PeriodicalId":627,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Engineering Thermophysics","volume":"33 4","pages":"810 - 832"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2025-01-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142995443","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper presents the results of a study of the intensity of heat transfer to a non-azeotropic alcohol-water mixture with a highly volatile component with mass concentration of 30% during forced circulation in a circular channel with spiral intensifiers with a hydrophobic coating. The experiments were carried out in a closed circulation circuit at a pressure of 0.03–0.04 MPa in the storage vessel. The test section was a stainless steel tube 2 m long with internal diameter of 7.6 mm and wall thickness of 0.2 mm. The heating was result of electric current flow in the tube wall. The spiral intensifiers had a winding pitch of 4 mm, and the thickness of the fluoroplastic coating was 0.9 mm. The experiments were carried out at mass flow rates of 36–450 kg/m<sup>2</sup>. The heat flux density range was <span>(8000 < q < 32000)</span> W/m<sup>2</sup>. The pressure drop in this test section was measured in single-phase and two-phase flow regimes, and the dynamics of the pressure drop during the formation of a two-phase flow under various operating parameters was shown. The use of the spiral intensifiers with a hydrophobic coating during circulation of the non-azeotropic alcohol-water mixture (30%) in the circular channel at channel wall temperatures below the saturation temperature of this mixture has led to the formation of a significant amount of the vapor-gas phase in the flow. The appearance of the vapor phase in the flow reduced the pressure drop in the heat-release section with the spiral intensifiers.
