The current industrial need for compact high heat density cooling devices has conveyed an increasing interest on convective boiling in micro-channels. Although there is general agreement that these systems may be able to dissipate potentially very high hea ...

The study is devoted to the modeling of microscale adiabatic gas-liquid annular two-phase flow. The turbulent diffusion of momentum in the annular liquid film is assumed to be governed by the conditions near the channel wall, in analogy with single-phase t ...

Xu et al. have recently published a set of results for boiling heat transfer measurements in a multi- channel micro- scale evaporator for flow boiling of acetone in triangular cross- section channels ( hydraulic diameter of 155.4 mm). In the present collab ...

Numerous characteristic trends and effects have been observed in published studies on two-phase micro-channel boiling heat transfer. While macro-scale flow boiling heat transfer may be decomposed into nucleate and convective boiling contributions, at the m ...

Experimental condensation heat transfer data for the new refrigerant R1234ze(E), trans-1,3,3,3-tetrafluoropropene, are presented and compared with refrigerants R134a and R236fa for a vertically aligned, aluminum multi-port tube. Local condensation heat tra ...

The current study presents a one-dimensional model of confined coalescing bubble flow for the prediction of micro-channel convective boiling heat transfer. Coalescing bubble flow has recently been identified as one of the characteristic flow patterns to be ...

The rapid development of micro-thermal technologies has conveyed an increasing interest on convective boiling in micro-channels. Although there is general agreement that these systems may be able to dissipate potentially very high heat fluxes per unit volu ...

Remarkably different behaviors are found when comparing micro-scale flow boiling heat transfer data by distinct authors, even under similar experimental conditions. Such differences are almost certainly related to the complexity of confined forced-flow boi ...
