Abstract

Advances in the development of micro- and nanostructured surfaces have enabled tremendous progress in delineation of mechanisms in boiling heat transfer and have propelled the rapid enhancement of heat transfer rates. This area of research is poised to make great strides toward tailoring surface features to produce dramatically improved thermal performance. A workshop was held in April 2013 to provide a review of the current state-of-the-art and to develop near-term and long-term goals for the boiling augmentation community. A brief historical perspective and primary findings are presented in this article. Though impressive gains have been made in enhancement of boiling heat transport, there still remain several unknowns such as the mechanisms that affect critical heat flux and optimization of surfaces for boiling heat transport. The promise of improved spatial resolution of optical techniques should improve knowledge of near-surface mechanisms. Standardization of experimental test sections and procedures has emerged as a critical issue that needs to be addressed immediately.

A study on the competing effects of the dielectrophoretic force and buoyancy on nucleate boiling heat transfer rates and an analogy with variable gravity boiling results

Conference Snyder, T; Chung, J; Schneider, J

The purpose of this paper is to form a more general understanding of the effect an electric field has on boiling heat transfer by considering non-boiling electroconvection and boiling bubble dynamics separately. In an attempt to decouple these two heat transfer mechanisms, an electric field was utilized which produced a uniform dielectrophoretic force (DEP force) across a horizontal platinum wire. It was concluded that the effect of the DEP force on the bubbles is analogous to reducing or increasing the gravity locally or inducing vapor flow across the heater surface similar to forced-convection. In terms of the relationship between themore »« less
Lattice Boltzmann modeling of boiling heat transfer: The boiling curve and the effects of wettability

Journal Article Li, Q.; Kang, Q.; Francois, M.; ... - International Journal of Heat and Mass Transfer

A hybrid thermal lattice Boltzmann (LB) model is presented to simulate thermal multiphase flows with phase change based on an improved pseudopotential LB approach (Li et al., 2013). The present model does not suffer from the spurious term caused by the forcing-term effect, which was encountered in some previous thermal LB models for liquid–vapor phase change. Using the model, the liquid–vapor boiling process is simulated. The boiling curve together with the three boiling stages (nucleate boiling, transition boiling, and film boiling) is numerically reproduced in the LB community for the first time. The numerical results show that the basic featuresmore »« less

Subcooled flow boiling critical heat flux (CHF) and its application to fusion energy components. Part I. A review of fundamentals of CHF and related data base

Journal Article Boyd, R - Fusion Technol.; (United States)

The present understanding of critical heat flux (CHF) in subcooled flow boiling with water is reviewed and fusion reactor component high-heat flux (HHF) requirements are outlined. This survey (Parts I and II), which contains a representative coverage of the literature over the last 30 years, is concerned only with CHF in the subcooled flow boiling regime. CHF data base parameter ranges are also given as an aid for fusion component designers in locating the appropriate data for an application. Because of the relatively HHF levels and long pulse durations in the next generation reactors, fusion components must be actively cooled.more »« less
Capillary Rise of Nanostructured Microwicks

Journal Article Choi, Chang; Krishnan, Shankar; TeGrotenhuis, Ward; ... - Micromachines

Capillarity refers to the driving force to propel liquid through small gaps in the absence of external forces, and hence enhanced capillary force has been pursued for various applications. In this study, flower like ZnO nanostructures are successfully deposited to enhance capillarity of microwick structures that are specially designed to augment boiling heat transfer performance. Microreactor-assisted nanomaterial deposition, MANDTM, is employed with a flow cell to deposit the ZnO nanostructures on a large sized microwick (4.3 cm 10.7 cm) with dual-channel configuration. A capillary rise experiment based on the mass gain method is first performed using water and ethanol (EtOH)more »« less

Scalable and Resilient Etched Metallic Micro- and Nanostructured Surfaces for Enhanced Flow Boiling

Journal Article Upot, Nithin; Mahvi, Allison; Fazle Rabbi, Kazi; ... - ACS Applied Nano Materials

Flow boiling and evaporation in tubes and channels occur in a wide variety of energy systems, such as refrigeration, air conditioning, power generation, electronics cooling, distillation, and purification. In this work, we demonstrate remarkably increased heat transfer coefficients of 270% during refrigerant flow boiling in scalable microstructured (~40 µm), industrial-scale (~1 m long) aluminum (Al) tubes, when compared to smooth unstructured Al tubes. To achieve scalable nanomanufacturing, we create highly conformal and durable structured surfaces by relying on hydrochloric acid Al etching. Flow boiling tests were conducted in 6.35 mm diameter Al tubes using R134a refrigerant as the working fluid.more »« less
