Abstract

Sintered stainless steel porous plugs have been used in the present research in the range covered for vapor-liquid phase separation (VLPS). The experiments performed have employed the zero net mass flow (ZNMF) mode with emphasis on non-linear phenomena. The Darcy permeability has been between 10-10 and 10-9 cm2. A step input in power has been applied for ZNMF to extract long time behavior of quasi-steady heat flow. Data have been analyzed using two methods: the departure function from wide duct disorder (“chaos”), and the simplest normal fluid convection model which incorporates size-dependent heat flux densities. Limits of both approaches are discussed on the basis of the experimental data obtained.
