Abstract: Drying of moist porous media can be very energy inefficient. For example, in the pulp and paper industry, paper drying consumes more than two-thirds of the total energy used in paper machines. Novel drying technologies can ...

Abstract: Impinging jet nozzles are omnipresent in industrial applications. Innovative impinging jet nozzles, such as radial jet reattachment (RJR) and slot jet reattachment (SJR) nozzles, have been proven to be highly efficient ...

Abstract: This paper extends previous liquid film flow boiling studies by including the effect of an additional electrohydrodynamic (EHD) force, namely, the dielectrophoretic (DEP) force. Rather than using only EHD conduction pumping ...

Abstract: Flow boiling in mini and microchannels has become an attractive option for many applications, such as compact and low-charge heat exchangers. Microchannel heat exchangers, however, are more susceptible to maldistribution ...

Abstract: As modern-day electronics develop, electronic devices become smaller, more powerful, and are expected to operate in more diverse configurations. However, the thermal control systems that help these devices maintain stable ...

Abstract: The ongoing development of modern electronic systems leads to smaller, more powerful devices that are expected to operate in complex environments. Due to this, advanced thermal management technologies are required to meet ...
