Abstract

Results of an investigation of the influence of the parameters of a sintered porous copper coating on heat transfer under conditions of propane boiling are reported. The experiments were carried out within the ranges of specific heat fluxes of q = 102–6.4·104 W/m2 and of saturation vapor pressures of p s = 0.48–1.08 MPa (T s = 0–30°C). Optimum parameters of the porous coating were determined within the investigated saturation pressure range. A dimensionless equation is suggested for determination of the heat‐transfer rate in propane boiling on sintered porous copper coatings.
