Abstract: Flow boiling was experimentally studied using coolant HFE-7000 for two types of parallel microchannels: a plain-wall microchannel and a microchannel with structured reentrant cavities on the side ...

Abstract: Critical heat flux conditions for water at subatmospheric pressures in an array of silicon-based, 227μm hydraulic diameter, rectangular microchannels were experimentally studied. Experiments were ...

Abstract: The ability of reentrant cavities to suppress flow boiling oscillations and instabilities in microchannels was experimentally studied. Suppression mechanisms were proposed and discussed with respect ...
