Abstract
An experimental investigation was made to clarify the effect of injection of nuclei of gas bubbles produced by the electrolysis of flashing liquid upon the flash evaporation.
Under various flashing conditions, measurements were made on the temperature distributions and the non-equilibrium temperature differences in a 1.0 m long flash chamber with and without baffle plates.
The results were compared with the previous measurements made for the case of no injection of nuclei.
In the case of a flash chamber without a baffle plate, the effect of nucleation is to increase the penetration depth of the flash evaporation and to decrease the non-equilibrium temperature difference.
