Modeling in-situ vapor extraction during flow boiling in microscale channel

Creator:

Salakij, Saran

Abstract:

In-situ vapor extraction is performed by applying a pressure differential across a hydrophobic porous membrane that forms a wall of the channel as a means of reducing the local quality of flow boiling within the channel. As the local quality is reduced, the heat transfer capability can be improve while...

A study of adiabatic and diabatic flow boiling in parallel microchannels and fractal-like branching microchannels

Creator:

Daniels, Brian J.

Abstract:

A one-dimensional numerical model has been developed to study diabatic and adiabatic flow boiling in microchannels. This model accounts for developing flow effects and variable property effects. The model uses correlations for void fraction and two-phase multipliers found in the literature. The model has been used to study the performance...
