FORCED CONVECTION HEAT TRANSFER TO SUPERCRITICAL CRYOGENIC HYDROGEN: PART 1. LITERATURE SURVEY
Abstract
The published experimental data covering forced convection heat transfer to cryogenic hydrogen are reviewed, with special attention to the near- critical regions of temperature and pressure. Data for straight and curved tubes, of both circular and non-circular cross-sections, are covered; also the case of asymmetric peripheral heat flux through the walls. A number of theoretical and semi-empirical treatments of the near-critical, variable fluid property condition are discussed, and their effectiveness in correlation of near-critical heat transfer to cryogenic hydrogen considered.
