Abstract: Experiments were conducted to investigate the nucleate pool boiling heat transfer characteristics and steam carrying phenomena during boiling for different aqueous surfactant solutions, 99% ...

Abstract: Surface condition has been shown to be the main parameter impacting pool boiling heat transfer performance, namely heat transfer coefficient (HTC) and the critical heat flux (CHF). Many ...

Early implementation of phase change cooling has seen a lot of work in understanding pool boiling. While being simple in comparison to two-phase flow systems, they are very useful when trying to ...

The growing use of artificial intelligence has led to heavy thermal loads and high heat dissipation rates in data centers. Conventional air-cooled technologies are not able to fulfill these ...

The old saw that a watched pot never boils may not apply to pots given an ultra-thin layer of aluminum oxide, which researchers have reported can double the heat transfer from a hot surface to a ...

It may seem illogical, but boiling is a very efficient way to cool engineering components and systems used in the extreme environments of space. An experiment to gain a basic understanding of this ...

Leading heat and mass transfer scientist John R Thome has published his latest twin-set "Encyclopedia of Two-Phase Heat Transfer and Flow I - Fundamentals and Methods" and "Encyclopedia of Two-Phase ...

Cryogenic heat transfer and flow dynamics are critical components in numerous industrial and scientific applications, ranging from the safe handling of liquefied gases to advanced space propulsion ...

ABSTRACT: This work compares two heat exchangers that use finned heat tubes: a crossflow finned tube heat exchanger with individual fins (IFHPHE) and an axially finned tube heat exchanger with ...
