Maximum fluid temperature

Syltherm XLT is a polydimethylsiloxane intended for Hquid-phase systems which operate at low temperatures. Syltherm 800 is a modified dimethylsiloxane polymer intended for Hquid-phase systems. The recommended maximum fluid temperature is greater than the autoignition temperature. 

Maximum fluid temperature temperature at which the dial pointer movement (stirrer revolutions) reaches the maximum rate. 

Data usually obtained with the Gieseler plastometer are (1) softening temperature (the tanpera-ture at which stirrer movement is equal to 0.5 dial divisions per minute) which may be characterized by other rates but if so the rate must be reported, (2) maximum fluid temperature (the temperature at which stirrer movement reaches maximum rate in terms of dial divisions per minute), (3) solidification temperature (the temperature at which stirrer movement stops), and (4) maximum fluidity (the maximum rate of stirrer movement in dial divisions per minute). 

Maximum fluid temperatures in a transformer could exceed values in the overload guide if units are subjected to more severe loading. Units with extreme overloads would be expected to overheat and fail. The most probable cause of eventful transformer failure is violent rupture (Doble, 1982) and the quantities of any compounds of concern which may be produced are determined by the availability of oxygen in an oxygen depleted, high temperature reaction zone of short duration. 

Assuming that the maximum possible temperature difference is on the fluid side with the higher heat capacity rate, then... 

The time variation of the mean and maximum heater temperature is presented in Fig. 6.39. The mean heater temperature (i.e., the average temperature of the whole heater) changed in the range of ATav = lOK. The maximum heater temperature changed in the range of ATmax = 6 K. Comparison between Figs. 6.37,6.38 and 6.39, shows that the time period (frequency) is the same for the pressure drop, the fluid temperature at the outlet manifold, and the mean and maximum heater temperature fluctuations. It also allows one to conclude that these fluctuations are in phase. 

Simultaneous measurements of temporal variations of pressure drop, fluid and heater temperatures show the boiling instability in parallel micro-channels. The channel-to-channel interactions may affect pressure drop between the inlet and the outlet manifold, as well as associated temperature of the fluid in the outlet manifold and the temperature of the heater. The frequency is the same for the pressure drop, the fluid temperature at the outlet manifold, and for the fluctuations of the mean and maximum temperature of the heater. All these fluctuations are in phase. When the heat flux increases, at a constant value of mass flux, the oscillation amplitudes of the pressure drop, the fluid and the heater temperatures also increase.
