ABSTRACT
The effect of contact angle on the growth and departure of asingle bubble on a horizontal heated surface during pool boilingunder normal gravity conditions has been investigated usingnumerical simulations. The contact angle is varied by changingthe Hamaker constant that defines the long-range forces. Afinite difference scheme is used to solve the equationsgoverning mass, momentum and energy in the vapor and liquid
phases. The vapor-liquid interface is captured by the Level Setmethod, which is modified to include the influence of phasechange at the liquid-vapor interface. The contact angle is variedfrom 1 to 90and its effect on the bubble departure diameterand the bubble growth period are studied. Both water andPF5060 are used as test liquids. The contact angle is keptconstant throughout the bubble growth and departure process.
The effect of contact angle on the parameters like thermalboundary layer thickness, wall heat flux and heat flux from themicrolayer under various conditions of superheats andsubcoolings is also studied.
INTRODUCTIONBoiling, being the most efficient mode of heat transfer is
employed in various energy conversion systems and componentcooling devices. In order to have a good understanding of the
process, a number of analytical, experimental and numericalstudies have been carried out in the past through the modelingof bubble dynamics including the growth and departure of thevapor bubbles. In this work complete numerical simulations of
bubble dynamics in pool boiling are carried out to qualify theeffect of contact angle.
Fritz (1935) was the first to develop an equation for thebubble departure diameter involving contact angle by balancingbuoyancy with surface tension forces acting on a static bubble.His empirical expression for bubble departure diameterinvolving contact angle is given as

effect of bubble growing velocity as

Lee and Nydahl (1989) calculated the bubble growth rateby solving the flow and temperature fields numerically from themomentum and energy equations. They used the formulation oCooper and Llyod (1969) for micro layer thickness. Howeverthey assumed a hemispherical bubble and wedge shapedmicrolayer and thus they neither accounted for nor evaluatedthe radial variation of the microlayer thickness during thegrowth of the bubble.
Zeng et al. (1993) used a force balance approach topredict the bubble diameter at departure. They included thesurface tension, inertial force, buoyancy and the lift forcecreated by the wake of the previous departed bubble. But therewas empiricism involved in computing the inertial and dragforces. The study assumed a power law profile for growth rate
and the coefficients were determined from the experiments.Mei et al. (1995) derived results for the bubble growth and
departure time assuming a wedge shaped microlayer. They alsoassumed that the heat transfer to the bubble was only throughthe microlayer, which is not correct. The study did not considethe hydrodynamics of the liquid motion induced by the growing
bubble and introduced empiricism through the assumed shapeof the growing bubble. Welch (1998) has used a finite volume

method and an interface tracking method to model bubbledynamics. The conduction in the solid wall was also taken intoaccount. However, the microlayer was not modeled explicitely.
Lay and Dhir (1995) carried out complete analysis of themicrolayer including disjoining pressure term, vapor recoil
pressure and interfacial heat transfer resistance to determine theshape of the microlayer for various contact angles. They used
balance between forces due to curvature of interface, disjoiningpressure, hydrostatic head and liquid drag, which in turndetermined the shape of the vapor-liquid interface.
Qiu and Dhir (2001) performed experiments for thedetermination of the bubble departure diameter and time periodof growth with water as well as PF5060 as test liquids. Theyobserved smaller departure diameters and growth periods in thecase of PF5060 than those for water and they attributed this tothe difference in the contact angles of the two liquids. Smallercontact angle causes smaller departure diameters and shortergrowth periods.
Son et al. (1999) numerically simulated the bubble growthduring the nucleate boiling by using the Level Set method. Thismethod has been applied to adiabatic incompressible two-phaseflow by Sussman et al. (1994) and to film boiling near critical
pressures by Son and Dhir (1998). The computational domainwas divided into two regions viz. micro and macro regions. The
interface shape, position and velocity and temperature fieldswere obtained from the macro region by solving theconservation equations. The micro region equations, whichinclude the disjoining pressure in the thin liquid film, weresolved by employing the lubrication theory. The solutions ofthe micro region and macro region were matched at the outeredge of the micro layer.
The purpose of the present study is to evaluate andanalyze the effect of contact angle on the bubble growth andheat transfer associated with it. The work of Son et al. (1999) isextended here to find the variations of bubble departurediameters, growth period and heat transfer associated with it forvarious contact angles.

5) The thermodynamic properties of the individual phasesare assumed to beinsensitive to the small changes in temperature and pressure.The assumption of constant property is reasonable as thecomputations are performed for low wall superheat range.6) Variations of contact angle during advancing and receding
phases of the interface are not included.
ANALYSIS
The model of Son et al. (1999) is extended to study single
bubble growth in nucleate boiling for various contact angles.The computational domain is divided in to two regions viz.micro region and macro region as shown in Fig.1. The microregion is a thin film that lies underneath the bubble whereas themacro region consists of the bubble and its surrounding. Boththe regions are coupled and are solved for simultaneously. Thecalculated shapes of the interface in the micro region and macroregion are matched at the outer edge of the micro layer.

Lubrication theory and one dimensional heat transfer inthe thin film have been assumed in a manner similar to that inthe earlier works by Stephan and Hammer (1994) and Lay andDhir (1995).
According to the lubrication theory, the momentumequation in the micro region is written as,

MACRO REGION
For numerically analyzing the macro region, the level setformulation developed by Son et al.(1999) for nucleate boilingof pure liquid is used. The interface separating the two phases is
captured by which is defined as a signed distance from theinterface. The negative sign is chosen for the vapor phase andthe positive sign for the liquid phase. The discontinuous
pressure drop across vapor and liquid caused by surface tensionforce is smoothed into a numerically continuous function with a
- function formulation (refer to Sussman et al., 1994, fordetail). The continuity, momentum and energy, conservationequations for the vapor and liquid in the macro region arewritten as,

RESULTS AND DISCUSSIONSBUBBLE DEPARTURE DIAMETER AND GROWTHPERIODFig. 2(a) shows the variation of bubble departure diameter withcontact angle for various wall superheats in saturated water.The bubble diameter increases slightly nonlinearly with contactangle for a given wall superheat. This is due to the increase inthe base area in contact with the wall, which increases the
contribution of downward force due to surface tension.The force due to surface tension increases with the increase in
the contact angle which in turn increases the vapor volumerequired for bubble departure.

The growth period of the bubble also increasesnonlinearly with the increase in the contact angle. Fig. 2(b)shows the variation of bubble growth period with contact anglefor various wall superheats in saturated water. This is due to theincreased contribution of the surface tension force in the case of
higher contact angles. The bubble shapes for various contacangles are given in Fig. 3 at time, which is half of the bubblegrowth period. For a contact angle of 90, the bubble ishemispherical and approaches nearly a spherical shape for acontact angle of 10.

DISPERSION CONSTANT
The value of , the Hamaker constant or the
dispersion constant is found out by iteration so as to match thebubble shape at the outer edge of the microlayer with that of themacrolayer. Fig. 4 shows the variation of the dispersion
constant, with contact angle for water and PF5060. The
dispersion constant goes from negative to positive value at

around 18 indicating the change to attractive nature between
the liquid and wall. The value of the dispersion constant
doesnt vary much between water and PF5060 for the samecontact angle and a wall superheat of 8C.

HEAT TRANSFER RATESFig. 5(a) shows the heat transfer rate corresponds to
evaporation from the microlayer and in to the bubble forvarious contact angles and a wall superheat of 8C in saturatedwater. The heat transfer rates increase with the increase incontact angle because of the increase in bubble base area asshown earlier in the fig. 3. Fig. 5(b) shows the heat transfer ratecorresponding to evaporation from the macrolayer surroundingthe bubble. The macrolayer contribution also increasessubstantially with the increase in contact angle because of asubstantial increase in the bubble diameter and bubble growth
period with contact angle. The total heat transfer rates i.e., thesum of the heat transfer rates form microlayer and macrolayerwas found match well with the heat transfer rate obtained fromvapor volume growth rate

for a wall superheat of 19C and a liquid subcooling of 0.6C.The equivalent bubble diameter is the diameter of the sphere
having the same volume as the bubble. The numerical resultsmatch well with the experimental data. The value of the
dispersion constant, calculated for PF5060 is about 2*100A-21
J, which indicates the attractive nature between the wall and theliquid and wetting nature of the liquid resulting in the lower
bubble departure diameters and smaller growth periods.Predicted bubble base diameter is also found to be in agreementwith that obtained in the experiments. Fig. 7 shows qualititativecomparison of the bubble shapes generated numerically with
that of experimental values of Qiu et al (2001). Againagreement between the shapes is reasonable.

COMPARISON OF WATER AND PF5060Fig. 8 (a) shows the comparison of predicted bubble
departure diameters with contact angle at a wall superheat of8C in saturated water and PF5060 whereas Fig. 8(b) showssuch a comparison when the bubble diameters are non-dimensionalized with l0. The Non-dimensional bubbledeparture diameter of PF5060 is higher than that of water at allcontact angles whereas the actual departure diameters of waterare always greater than that of PF5060. This is due to the largevalue of Jackob number, Ja* for PF5060 (Ja*=0.106) incomparison to that for water (Ja*=0.015). This mainly reflectson the increase in liquid inertia as a result of faster growth ofthe bubble.

CONCLUSIONS1) The bubble departure diameter increases with the increasein the contact angle. The contact angle is related to themagnitude of the Hamaker constant, which is found to changewith the surface wettability.
2) The dispersion constant, goes from negative to positive
value at around 18 indicating the change in the repulsive toattractive nature between the wall and the liquid.

3) The magnitude of dispersion constant does not differ
much between water and PF5060 for the same contact angle forsame superheat.
0A
4) The Non-dimensional departure diameters of PF5060 aregreater than those for water due to the higher values of theJackob number.
