Nucleation characteristics and stability considerations
(Elsevier Science B.V., 2006)
Flow boiling in microchannels and minichannels has received considerable attention in the past decade. The interest stems from the
possibility of achieving the extremely high heat fluxes, over 1 kW/cm2, needed for future ...
Effects of liquid-vapor phase distribution on the heat transfer mechanisms during flow boiling in minichannels and microchannels
(Taylor & Francis, 2006-01)
Heat transfer during flow boiling in minichannels and microchannels is intimately linked to the liquid-vapor phase distribution
in the channels. The vapor phase exists as nucleating bubbles, dispersed bubbles, elongated ...
On the nature of critical heat flux in microchannels
(American Society of Mechanical Engineers, 2005-01)
The critical heat flux (CHF) limit is an important consideration in
the design of most flow boiling systems. Before the use of microchannels
under saturated flow boiling conditions becomes widely
accepted in cooling of ...
Heat transfer mechanisms during flow boiling in microchannels
(American Society of Mechanical Engineers, 2004-02)
The forces due to surface tension and momentum change during evaporation, in conjunction
with the forces due to viscous shear and inertia, govern the two-phase flow patterns
and the heat transfer characteristics during ...
An Experimental investigation on flow boiling of ethylene-glycol / water mixtures
(American Society of Mechanical Engineers, 2003-04)
Mixtures of ethylene glycol and water are used in cooling the engines in automotive applications. Heat is transferred essentially under subcooled flow boiling conditions as the mixture flows over the hot surfaces, which ...
