Abstract

This publication concerns the analysis of an interaction between steam bubbles in highly mineralized aqueous solutions flowing in the natural-circulation loop of a flash evaporator. Data are given on the distribution of steam bubbles with respect to their diameters and their floating velocities; an expression is also given for the interaction factor making it possible to improve the technique of hydrodynamics calculations for the apparatuses under discussion.
