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...
