In this paper, the boiling heat transfer test rig was designed and built, while the characteristics of boiling Heat Transfer of refrigerants in micro-channel was researched. The wall temperature of micro-channel was measured by TH5104 Infrared thermography. The results showed that there were obvious variations for wall temperature of micro-channel along the axial direction when boiling heat transfer occurred in the micro-channel. The temperature distribution affected obviously by the heat flux, mass flow rate; vapor quality and heat transfer model.

The purpose of this research is to evaluate the performance of a novel model that incorporates a thermoelectric generator (TEG) and phase change material (PCM). The proposed model passively generates electricity using waste heat that accumulates at exterior wall surfaces. The main generator is a TEG. To maintain the temperature difference between the two sides of the TEG, PCM is located at its cold side—thus converging the heat transferred into latent heat. The proposed passive generation system is formed into a TEG-PCM block. The block can be stacked to form a wall or inserted into any part of a building that faces the sun. The experiment setup is based on a constant temperature method. The wall temperature profile is set according to solar radiation, convection, and radiative heat transfer. To replicate daily wall temperatures during the experiment, a heat plate is used to match a wall temperature profile. Step control was used for the heating plate. The resulting data shows the average temperature difference between the hot and cold sides of the TEG to be 10-20°C. The peak generated electricity was 0.08 W for a single module.

For understanding flame stability in microcombustor, fundamental studies on the combustion characteristics in a meso-scale channel with a prescribed wall temperature profile have been conducted. Results showed that the existence of dynamic oscillatory flames and weak flames in addition to the normal propagating flames for the first time. It is then recognized that the weak flame phenomena can be applied for examining multi-stage oxidation of hydrocarbon fuels in wide temperature range from 300K up to auto-ignition temperature. Based on the preliminary experiments with various fuels including primary referenced fuel for gasoline, research octane number (RON) of the test fuels can be clearly described by the aspects of the stabilized stationary multiple weak flames. The methodology can be termed “flame chromatography” and it is expected to be applied for fuel indexing of future alternative fuel characterizations.

A mathematical model is explored to establish the electroosmotic flow for Cu-wa-ter nanoliquids within a ciliated symmetric micro-channel, the flow is established with aid of ciliary motion and axial pressure gradient. Nanofluid comprise of Cu as a nanofluid particles and water as base fluid. Maxwell-Garnelt model is exploited for viscosity and thermal conductivity of nanoliquid. Magnetic field is applied in the transverse direction and external electric field is enforced in the axial direction. Equations of motion are simplified for nanofluid flow in the micro-channel by employing low Reynolds number and long wavelength approximation theory. Crucial exact analytical expression are gathered for electric potential, temperature profile, axial velocity, volume flux, pressure gradient, stream function, and result for pressure rise per wavelength explored numerically. The influence of crucial flow parameters on, flow behaviour, pumping phenomena, and temperature profile are thoroughly investigated.
