摘要
To guide the development of cryogenic propellant rapid filling technology for launch vehicle, the mechanism of inversed annular flow pattern stability on accelerating pipeline chill-down progress was explored.A cryogenic chill-down test platform was established to evaluate the performance of micro-fin tube by comparing quenching behaviors of straight tube and micro-fin tube cases. It was found that adopting micro-fin tube could reach the time cost by over 60%.In the smooth tube case,the highest heat flux was about 22 kW/m2. Comparatively,the highest heat flux in the micro-fin tube case even reached about 45 kW/m2.Moreover,in the micro-fin tube case,the wall temperature appeared an approximately-linear decreasing tendency in the whole process. The mechanism of micro-fin tube is that a radial velocity component could be induced by introducing the micro-fin structure,and this radial strike acts on the liquid-vapor interface directly,bringing about an interface fluctuation or interface breakup,so that an earlier liquid-wall contact could be caused.Moreover,when employing a high inlet flow rate condition,a micro-fin tube with large fin interval should be suggested since the flow resistance could be reduced remarkably on the premise of heat transfer enhancement. © 2024 Huazhong University of Science and Technology.
