New saturated critical heat flux (CHF) data have been obtained experimentally in two different multi-microchannel heat sinks made in copper with three low pressure refrigerants (R134a, R236fa, R245fa). One of the test sections had 20 parallel rectangular c ...
The rapid development of micro-thermal technologies has conveyed an increasing interest on convective boiling in micro-channels. Although there is general agreement that these systems may be able to dissipate potentially very high heat fluxes per unit volu ...
A comprehensive review of flow boiling characteristics and flow pattern visualization of refrigerant/lubricant oil mixtures is presented in this paper. First, various parameters influenced by the lubricant oil in convective boiling of refrigerants, such as ...
New correlations predicting the local boiling heat transfer coefficients for vertical flow over a tube bundle have been developed. These correlations were developed for three different classes of tubes: smooth, low-finned, and Turbo-BII HP. These correlati ...
This article presents experimental results of heat transfer from two different studies [1, 2] for horizontal flow boiling inside smooth copper tubes with different refrigerants. The main goal of this study was to verify the influence of the saturation temp ...
The complexities of two-phase flow and evaporation on a tube bundle present important problems in the design of heat exchangers and the understanding of the physical phenomena taking place. The development of structured surfaces to enhance boiling heat tra ...
Experimental studies were performed to investigate the flow patterns of liquid films of R-134a on vertical arrays of horizontal tubes under adiabatic test conditions at room temperature and during condensation at a saturation temperature of 304 K. Three ar ...
This article investigates the effect of inlet orifices on saturated critical heat flux (CHF) in multi-microchannel heat sinks. Two different multi-microchannel heat sinks made in copper were tested with three low pressure refrigerants (R134a, R236fa, R245f ...

Interspecies competitive effects on the degradation of two alkyl halides (1-bromo-2-chloroethane, BCA, and 1,1,2-trichloroethane, 1,1,2-TCA) and three vinyl halides (trichloroethylene, TCE; cis-dichloroethylene, cis-DCE; and trans-dichloroethylene, trans-D ...
Dissolved silica species are naturally occurring, ubiquitous groundwater constituents with corrosion-inhibiting properties. Their influence on the performance and longevity of iron-based permeable reactive barriers for treatment of organohalides was invest ...
