The complexity of two-phase flow boiling on a tube bundle presents many challenges to the understanding of the physical phenomena taking place. It is important to quantify these numerous heat flow mechanisms in order to better describe the performance of t ...
Improving the energy efficiency of cooling systems can contribute to reduce the emission of greenhouse gases. Currently, most microelectronic applications are air-cooled. Switching to two-phase cooling systems would decrease power consumption and allow for ...
The present study focuses on an experimental investigation of two-phase flow boiling in a silicon multi-microchannel evaporator, which emulates a single layer of a 3D stacked computer chip. The micro-evaporator is comprised of 67 parallel channels, each ha ...
A theoretical and numerical model to predict film condensation heat transfer in mini, micro and ultra micro-channels of different internal shapes is presented in this thesis. The model is based on a finite volume formulation of the Navier-Stokes and energy ...
This project aims to improve the technique of self-cleaning stencil based on heated membranes and minimize the clogging of stencil’s apertures. To this end, theory on vapor condensation has been developed for Aluminum, Chromium, Titanium, Gold and Platinum ...
Experimental condensation heat transfer data for the new refrigerant R1234ze(E), trans-1,3,3,3-tetrafluoropropene, are presented and compared with refrigerants R134a and R236fa for a vertically aligned, aluminum multi-port tube. Local condensation heat tra ...
This paper focuses on two-phase flow boiling of refrigerant R134a inside a copper multi-microchannel heat sink for microelectronic central processing unit cooling applications. The heat sink is composed of 100 parallel microchannels, 100 mu m wide, 680 mu ...
An extensive experimental campaign has been carried out for the measurement of saturated critical heat flux in a multi-microchannel copper heat sink. The heat sink was formed by 29 parallel channels that were 199 mu m wide and 756 mu m deep. In order to in ...
Continuous development of highly efficient and compact cooling elements are driven by extensive developments of Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems (MEMS) devices such as microprocessors or micro high-powered laser systems. As microprocessors continue to head ...
The flow pattern based flow boiling heat transfer and two-phase pressure drop models for CO2, recently developed by Cheng et al. [L Cheng, G. Ribatski. J. Moreno Quiben, J.R. Thome, New prediction methods for CO2 evaporation inside tubes: Part I - A two-ph ...
