Spatio – temporal temperature variations during droplet impingement evaporation : effects of nanofluid and nano-structured surface

Creator:

Graber, Christof

Abstract:

Droplet and spray impingement cooling are typically used in high heat flux thermal management. In this thesis, droplet impingement and evaporation heat transfer characteristics are determined from measured spatially- and temporally- varying fluid and surface temperatures. Unique to this study is the documentation of the effects of using a nanofluid...

Masters Thesis
Lateral fluid motion in nucleate boiling through asymmetric surface structures

Creator:

Kapsenberg, Florian

Abstract:

This thesis presents a feasibility study of a means to passively effect liquid motion parallel to a heated surface though surface geometrical modifications. Such a passive system is beneficial for electronics cooling applications as it reduces the pumping equipment normally required in flow loops and is desired for space applications,...

Masters Thesis
Performance and flow stability characteristics in two-phase confined impinging jets

Creator:

Sabo, Michael D.

Abstract:

Advances in electronics fabrication, coupled with the demand for increased computing power, have driven the demand for innovative cooling solutions to dissipate waste heat generated by these devices. To meet future demands, research and development has focused on robust and stable two-phase heat transfer devices. A confined impinging jet is...

Coupled momentum and heat transport in laminar axisymmetric pipe flow of ferrofluids in non-uniform magnetic fields : theory and simulation

Creator:

Cruz-Fierro, Carlos Francisco

Abstract:

The effect of a non-uniform magnetic field on the coupled transport of momentum and heat is studied for the case of laminar pipe flow of a magnetically susceptible ferrofluid. The momentum and heat transport equations are complemented with the necessary electromagnetic terms and used to develop a computer simulation of...

Design, modeling and performance of miniature reciprocating expander for a heat actuated heat pump

Creator:

Herron, Thomas G.

Abstract:

A miniature reciprocating expander is being developed as part of a larger program to develop a heat actuated heat pump for portable applications. By utilizing the higher energy density of liquid hydrocarbon fuels relative to batteries, a heat actuated heat pump would be able to provide cooling for much longer...

Masters Thesis
Stability analysis on single-phase natural circulation in Argonne Lead Loop Facility

Creator:

Tang, Hong

Abstract:

Natural convection provides a means for circulating fluids without the use of pumps. This type of system is of great interest for a wide variety of applications, including solar heaters, process industry, and nuclear reactors. Natural convection will play a vital role in the area of passive safety and reliability,...

Masters Thesis
Flow characteristics of semi-confined impinging jet arrays

Creator:

Dano, Bertrand P. E.

Abstract:

The present study proposes to investigate the flow structure of different arrays of jets impinging on a flat surface enclosed by three walls, creating a channel that forces the air to leave in one preferential direction, generating a self sustain crossflow. Details of both the mean and some turbulence quantities...

Effects of orifice geometry and surface boundary condition on heat transfer of impinging jet array

Creator:

Kanokjaruvijit, Koonlaya.

Abstract:

The effects of the orifice geometry and the surface boundary condition on the heat transfer distribution to a flat surface of an impinging jet array were investigated. The jet array impinged normally onto the surface which was either isothermal or had a uniform heat flux. The experiments were performed for...

Masters Thesis
Development of a process for fabricating high-aspect-ratio, meso-scale geometries in stainless steel

Creator:

Walker, Benjamin A.

Abstract:

Miniature energy and chemical systems (MECS) are miniature thermal, fluid, and chemical devices in the mesoscale size range between a sugar cube and a human fist. MECS take advantage of improved rates of mass and heat transfer that have been observed at the microscale. There are many potential applications for...
