Experimental Research on the Flow and Heat Transfer Characteristics of Subcritical and Supercritical Water in the Vertical Upward Smooth and Rifled Tubes

Experiments were conducted to investigate the heat transfer and flow characteristics of the vertical upward smooth and rifled tubes from subcritical to supercritical pressure. The distributions of wall temperature and heat transfer coefficient (HTC) were obtained, and the HTC correlations and fricti...
