Heat transfer mechanisms during flow boiling in microchannels
(American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 2003-04)
The forces due to surface tension, inertia, and momentum change during evaporation in microchannel govern the two-phase flow patterns and the heat transfer characteristics during flow boiling. These forces are analyzed in ...
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 ...
Microchannels-Short history and bright future
(Taylor & Francis, 2003-01-02)
Effect of surface roughness on heat transfer and fluid flow characteristics at low reynolds numbers in small diameter tubes
(Taylor & Francis, 2003)
The effect of surface roughness on pressure drop and heat transfer in circular tubes has been
extensively studied in literature. The pioneering work of Nikuradse [I] established the sand grain
roughness as a major parameter ...
