Abstract—

Heat transfer of supercritical-pressure (SCP) coolants continues to attract the attention of both researchers and engineers. Works on developing phenomenological models of the process, elaboration of universal computer codes, and search for reliable semiempirical generalizing correlations, primarily for deteriorated heat-transfer conditions, are continued. To ensure sufficiently accurate and reliable results obtained using these correlations and codes, they should be verified using the same array of experimental data (benchmark). This data array should be carefully selected, analyzed, and checked on the basis of many studies and practical engineering applications. The choice of data for verification should not be selective in nature; the more so, it should not be based solely on the experimental data of the authors of the proposed correlations. The article presents a tabulated summary of experimental studies on heat transfer and fluid dynamics of supercritical pressure water and carbon dioxide in round tubes. These studies cover normal and deteriorated heat-transfer conditions (with sorting into groups depending on the extent of influence caused by buoyancy and thermal acceleration effects) and data on pressure drop, velocity profiles, and shear stresses. At the same time, these richest and practically tested data should be used in a very competent and accurate manner. Preference should primarily be given to the use of primary data reported in these studies, and it is not recommended to verify the new calculated data by applying the generalizing correlations from these studies obtained using the old standards on thermophysical properties. It is emphasized that the results from new calculations of heat transfer become essentially more valuable if they are accompanied by simultaneously obtained data on the flow hydraulic characteristics.

Notes

  1. It is inadmissible to carry out verification using the formulas developed proceeding from the standard A because there is an obvious risk to obtain erroneous results and, accordingly, no less erroneous conclusions.

  2. DNS is direct numerical simulation of turbulence, and LES is the large eddy simulation method.
