Test: Boiling - Question 3
Save

Maximum heat transfer rate in a modern boiler is about

Detailed Solution: Question 3

Greater importance has recently been given to the boiling heat transfer.

Test: Boiling - Question 4
Save

Which type of boiling occurs in steam boilers employing natural convection?

Detailed Solution: Question 4

The liquid above the hot surface is essentially stagnant and the only motion near the surface is because of free convection.

Test: Boiling - Question 5
Save

In which type of boiling the fluid motion is induced by external means?

Detailed Solution: Question 5

The liquid is pumped and forced across the surface in a controlled manner.

Test: Boiling - Question 6
Save

The temperature of the liquid is below the saturation temperature and boiling takes place only in vicinity of the heated surface. This type of boiling is known as

Detailed Solution: Question 6

The vapor bubbles travel a short path and then vanish, apparently they condense in the bulk of the liquid which is at a temperature less than the boiling point.

Test: Boiling - Question 7
Save

In which type of boiling the temperature of the liquid exceeds the saturation temperature?

Detailed Solution: Question 7

The vapor bubbles generated at the solid surface are transported through the liquid by buoyancy effects and eventually escape from the surface.

Test: Boiling - Question 8
Save

The phenomenon of stable film boiling is referred to as

Detailed Solution: Question 8

This is the region of stable film boiling.

Test: Boiling - Question 9
Save

For water evaporating at atmospheric pressure, the burnout occurs at temperature excess slightly above

Detailed Solution: Question 9

The burnout point on the boiling curve represents the point of maximum heat flux at which transition occurs from nucleate to film boiling.

Test: Boiling - Question 10
Save

The boiling phenomenon is known to occur in how many forms?

Detailed Solution: Question 10

Pool, forced convection, subcooled and saturated boiling.
