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 ...
The current study presents a one-dimensional model of confined coalescing bubble flow for the prediction of micro-channel convective boiling heat transfer. Coalescing bubble flow has recently been identified as one of the characteristic flow patterns to be ...
Nuclear power is nowadays in the front rank as regards helping to meet the growing worldwide energy demand while avoiding an excessive increase in greenhouse gas emissions. However, the operating nuclear power plants are mainly thermal-neutron reactors and ...
The objective of this thesis is the development of a compact reactor for continuous three-phase reactions in single-pass configurations. The design is based on a bubble column reactor staged with layers of catalytic material. To make the reactor suitable f ...
The PhD thesis deals with the optimization of the reaction calorimetry technique to monitor chemical reactions in supercritical fluids. The aim is to develop this thermal analysis technique to monitor the heat released by a chemical reaction in a high pres ...
Until about the year 2030, current-day nuclear power plants (NPPs) will be replaced by so-called Gen-III or Gen-III+ units, which are mainly based on light water reactor technology. The principal new features are increased safety and improved economical ef ...
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 ...
Gas cooling in nuclear power plants (NPPs) has a long history, the corresponding reactor types developed in France, the UK and the US having been thermal neutron-spectrum systems using graphite as the moderator. The majority of NPPs worldwide, however, are ...
Numerous characteristic trends and effects have been observed in published studies on two-phase micro-channel boiling heat transfer. While macro-scale flow boiling heat transfer may be decomposed into nucleate and convective boiling contributions, at the m ...
