Critical Heat Flux in Flow Boiling in Microchannels


Book Description

This Brief concerns the important problem of critical heat flux in flow boiling in microchannels. A companion edition in the SpringerBrief Subseries on Thermal Engineering and Applied Science to “Heat Transfer and Pressure Drop in Flow Boiling in Microchannels,” by the same author team, this volume is idea for professionals, researchers, and graduate students concerned with electronic cooling.







A Theoretical Prediction of Critical Heat Flux in Forced Convection Boiling During Power Transients


Book Description

In this paper, a theoretical prediction of critical heat flux (CHF) during power transients in forced convective boiling is presented. The analysis is restricted to the departure from nucleate boiling (DNB) type of CHF at low qualities. The developed theory is compared with the experimental data available in the literature. The agreement is favorable. The results are discussed in terms of the various parameters affecting the transient CHF. This new model also is compared with the semi-empirical transient CHF model in the literature.







Heat Transfer and Fluid Flow in Minichannels and Microchannels


Book Description

&Quot;This book explores flow through passages with hydraulic diameters from about 1 [mu]m to 3 mm, covering the range of minichannels and microchannels. Design equations along with solved examples and practice problems are also included to serve the needs of practicing engineers and students in a graduate course."--BOOK JACKET.
