RISEffects of Hydrophilic and Hydrophobic Surfaces on Start-Up Performance of an Oscillating Heat Pipe
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Slug oscillations and heat transfer performance in the start-up stage of oscillating heat pipes (OHPs) with different surface wetting characteristics were investigated experimentally. The inner surfaces of the OHPs were ...
Heat Transfer Enhancement of Horizontal Oscillating Heat Pipes With Micro-/Nanostructured Surface
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: For oscillating heat pipes (OHPs) with low turn number (<9) positioned in the horizontal direction, the working fluid could not easily flow back to the evaporator due to the absence of gravity. Based on this, copper OHP ...
Effects of Superhydrophobic and Superhydrophilic Surfaces on Heat Transfer and Oscillating Motion of an Oscillating Heat Pipe
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The effects of superhydrophobic surface and superhydrophobic and superhydrophilic hybrid surface on the fluid flow and heat transfer of oscillating heat pipes (OHPs) were investigated in the paper. The inner surfaces of ...
Seismic Capacity Evaluation of Exterior Shear Keys of Highway Bridges
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Shear keys as sacrificial components are widely used in cap beams and abutments of highway bridges to limit the transverse displacement of superstructures and avoid damage of substructures. To investigate the seismic ...
Droplet Departure Characteristics and Dropwise Condensation Heat Transfer at Low Steam Pressure
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Dropwise condensation has received significant attention due to its great potential to enhance heat transfer by the rapid droplet removal. In this work, droplet departure characteristics on a vertical surface, especially ...
