To explore the dynamics of flow and heat transfer behaviors associated with bubbles during solution absorption in a vacuum environment, we present the design of an experimental setup for measuring the absorption and transport properties of bubbles in a pressurized vertical tube. The structure and operational principle of the setup are detailed. The reliability and accuracy of the system are validated through a series of experiments, including vacuum level maintenance, bubble flow verification, and energy checks. The findings reveal that the supercharging technology effectively facilitates bubble absorption under negative pressure. Over a 12 h period, the system vacuum level elevates by only 2.33%, indicating a minimal gas leakage rate of 2.4 mL/h and affirming the device’s exceptional reliability. The observed bubble formation, rise, collision, coalescence, and rupture behaviors in the experiment are consistent with previous studies on bubble flow. The maximum relative deviations of temperature and concentration at the solution and cooling water outlets are 0.08%, 0.02%, and 0.01%, respectively, validating the device’s excellent accuracy. Additionally, the energy check experiments, performed with varying solution inlet temperature and flow rate, reveal the maximum errors of 10.4 J and 12.5 J, respectively, demonstrating the device’s satisfactory accuracy. In summary, this work lays a robust experimental foundation for subsequent investigations into the transport properties and transfer mechanisms of bubble absorption in a vacuum environment. |
