Abstract
The paper focuses on hydrocarbon fuel cooling in launch vehicles, specifically considering experimental technique and results obtained during investigation of one of the primary heat exchanger parameters, that is, heat transfer coefficient of the heat exchanger surface. We present a model of efficient hydrocarbon fuel cooling by means of intensifying heat transfer on the external heat exchanger surface due to nitrogen sparging causing active motion in the liquid heat carrier. We obtained quantitative data regarding heat transfer on the external surface of a helical-coil heat exchanger located in a two-phase medium consisting of antifreeze and nitrogen, in the temperature range of 243--293 K. We derived a similarity equation for calculating heat transfer coefficient on the external heat exchanger surface, which is required to determine the heat exchanger surface area and to compute heat transfer from hydrocarbon fuel to the two-phase medium consisting of antifreeze and nitroge.
