EXPERIMENTS AND INVESTIGATION ON HEAT TRANSFER BY LIQUIDS AT OR NEAR THEIR CRITICAL POINTS.
Abstract
Contents: The Cooling of the Blades of Gas Turbines -- The fundamental ideas of cooling turbine blades by water; and Turbines with watercooled blades actually built; Free Convection in Horizontal Layers of a Liquid Heated Below and Cooled Above; Free Convection in Tubes Containing a Fluid Near Its Critical State -- First orientating experiments and some general considerations; Experiments with an improved installation; The final experimental installation; Equivalent heat conductivity by free convection in a tube filled with CO2 studies with the final installation; and The influence of a partition subdividing the cross area of an inclined tube in an upper and a lower half; and The Behavior of Substances at their Critical State -- Initial experimental installation, Photographic observations, Results of the point-by-point measurements of the refractive index and the molecular refractivity. The saturation line of carbon dioxide near its critical state and the data of its critical point, Instationary phenomena, Microscopic photographs of the meniscus near the critical point and its reaction upon small sudden changes of state, and Deductions and theoretical considerations.
