Development of a flow boiling map for subcooled and saturated flow boiling of different fluids inside circular tubes
(American Society of Mechanic Engineers, 1991-02)
The thermal behavior of a flow boiling system is represented by a flow boiling map to illustrate visually the relationships among various system parameters. An earlier flow boiling map Collier (1981) does not include the ...
Review of fabrication of nanochannels for single phase liquid flow
(American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 2005-06)
The topic of single phase liquid flow in submicron or
nanochannels is a nascent field. There have only been a couple
papers that have dealt with this area directly. The most
probable reason for this is that currently ...
Experimental study of heat transfer in an evaporating meniscus on a moving heated surface
(American Society of Mechanical Engineers, 2005-03)
A stable meniscus is formed by a circular nozzle dispensing water over a heated circular
face of a rotating cylindrical copper block. The nozzle is offset from the axis of rotation of
the copper block and thus a moving ...
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 ...
Numerical study of an evaporating meniscus on a moving heated surface
(Journal of Heat Transfer, 2006-12)
The present study is performed to numerically analyze an evaporating meniscus bounded
between the advancing and receding interfaces on a moving heated surface. The numerical
scheme developed for analyzing interface motion ...
Development of an experimental facility for investigating single-phase liquid flow in microchannels
(American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 2005-06)
An experimental facility is developed to investigate singlephase
liquid heat transfer and pressure drop in a variety of
microchannel geometries. The facility is capable of accurately
measuring the fluid temperatures, ...
Characterization of the effect of surface roughness and texture on fluid flow - past, present, and future
(American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 2005-06)
That surface roughness has an effect on fluid flow in
networks has been understood for well over a century. The
exact effect roughness has on fluid flow has not been
completely understood, but a working estimate has ...
High flux heat removal with microchannels - A roadmap of challenges and opportunities
(American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 2005-06)
Heat fluxes in IC chips and other electronics equipment
have reached the current limits of air cooling technology.
Some of the applications require heat fluxes well beyond the
limit of 100 W/cm2, requiring advanced ...
Numerical study of an evaporating meniscus on a moving heated surface
(American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 2004-07)
The present study is performed to numerically analyze an evaporating meniscus on a moving heated surface. This phenomenon is similar to the one observed at the base of a vapor bubble during nucleate boiling. The complete ...
Numerical simulation of growth of a vapor bubble during flow boiling of water in a microchannel
(American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 2004-06)
The present study is performed to numerically analyze growth of a vapor bubble during flow of water in a microchannel. The complete Navier-Stokes equations along with continuity and energy equations are solved using the ...
