Abstract: With regard to potential application in pressurized water reactors (PWRs), a nanoporous heated surface was tested in pool boiling of an aqueous solution of boric acid (H3BO3), or borated water (1% volume concentration). ...

Abstract: The present research is an experimental study for the enhancement of boiling heat transfer using microporous coatings. Two types of coatings are investigated: one that is bonded using epoxy and the other by soldering. ...

Abstract: A novel, hightemperature, thermally conductive, microporous coating (HTCMC) is developed by brazing copper particles onto a copper surface. This coating is more durable than many previous microporous coatings and also ...
