Tube-CHF database compilation and assessment

This paper describes the methodology of compiling, examining and screening the water CHF database, obtained in uniformly heated vertical tubes. This database has been used as the basis for deriving the CHF look-up table. In addition to the water CHF database, a large number of non-aqueous CHF data have been compiled. These CHF values can be transformed into water-equivalent values by means of fiuid-to-fluid modelling relationships. The …
