Two-phase test rig
The experimental facility allows measurements of heat transfer coefficients and pressure drop, as well as visualization of low regimes, during single- and two-phase flows inside microstructures surfaces. It has a maximum working pressure of 30 bar and a maximum mass flow rate of 72 kg/h. The main components are the following:
– Ice Point Reference KAYE K170 model (75 channels);
– NI CompactDAQ 9178 8-Slots with 5 NI-9213 modules, 1 NI-9208 module and 1 NI-9219 module;
– 1 Rosemount 2400 series Micro Motion Coriolis effect mass flowmeter;
– 2 Rosemount 8700 series magnetic flowmeters;
– 1 Endress+Hauser Promag 50H02;
–
