Abstract
Experimental study has been carried out to investigate the heat transfer characteristics of emulsion, which consists of silicone oil and water with a trace of surfactant. Heat transfer of an electrically heated horizontal Pt wire was measured for ambient emulsion temperatures and stir conditions. The results show that the heat transfer mode change of the boiling point of emulsified water in oil emulsions. It is observed that the enhancement of heat transfer in the limited temperature region appears under weak stir conditions. It is also obvious that the above enhancement was hidden under strong stir conditions.
