Abstract

The effects of an externally imposed electric field on critical heat flux in subcooled pool boiling have been experimentally studied. The test section was a 0.3 mm diameter platinum wire electrically heated. A coaxial cage with high voltage provided the outer electrode forming a cylindrical symmetric electric field around the heater. It was observed that the effect of the electric field on critical heat flux decreases as subcooling increases.
