Abstract: There exist some problems such as flow instability and critical heat flux (CHF) caused by the local dryout phenomenon, which is an obstacle to the application of microchannel flow boiling heat sink. Utilizing self-rewetting ...

Abstract: An experimental investigation of subcooled flow boiling in a rectangular mini-gap channel with the dimension of 0.5 mm × 5 mm was conducted with deionized water as the working fluid. Fabricated by electroless plating method ...

Abstract: The combination of microstructured surface and microchannel flow boiling is expected to solve the thermal management problems of high-heat-flux devices. In this study, the experimental investigation of subcooled flow boiling ...

Abstract: To explore the effect of microstructured porous surface on enhancing the heat transfer of flow boiling in a microchannel, the microporous copper surface was fabricated with microscale pores in ranges of 1–5 μm, which ...

Abstract: An experimental study of saturated flow boiling in a high-aspect-ratio one-side-heating rectangular microchannel was conducted with de-ionized water as the working fluid. ZnO microrods with the average diameter of about ...
