Taking Leidenfrost effect as the criterion, the heat and mass transfer mechanisms and wall temperature decrease effects among different surface modification techniques on fast chilldown were compared and analysed. A test platform was established to study the chilldown characteristics of micro-fin tube. The results demonstrated that the micro-fin structure could motivate a radial velocity component inside the inversed annular vapor film. This radial velocity struck the liquid-vapor interface, bringing about a significant interface fluctuation or tearing the liquid column. Therefore, an early liquid-wall contacting heat transfer, represented as the suppresion of Leidenfrost effect, could be yielded by which a chilldown acceleration was reached. Moreover, the micro-fin tube could attain the dual-purpose of reducing time cost and saving propellant consumption. When a micro-fin tube was adopted, the Leidenfrost effect did not occur so the tube wall probably experienced an approximately linear temperature decrease. Compared with the smooth tube cases, the time cost was reduced by 50%—63% and the liquid consumption decreased by 59%—69%. In addition, for the present experimental results, the chilldown efficiencies of the micro-fin tube cases were about 7%—40%, and the results for the straight tube cases were about 10%—22%. Generally, the present research provides a reliable theoretical support for the high-efficient utilization of cryogenic propellant in aerospace field.
