Measurements of space and time resolved heat transfer during subcooled pool boiling of pentane in earth gravity were obtained using a microscale heater array. Data from individual heater elements in the array were synchronized with bottom and side view images from two high-speed cameras. The heat transfer mechanisms during bubble growth were found to be dependent on bubble dynamics and bubble growth time. Single phase heat transfer mechanisms (transient conduction and/or microconvection) were found to be dominant for single bubbles with short growth times. Two phase heat transfer mechanisms (microlayer evaporation and/or contact line evaporation) were found to be dominant for bubbles with longer growth times.

Effect of uniformly and nonuniformly coated Al2O3 nanoparticles over plain glass tube heater on pool boiling heat transfer was studied experimentally. A borosilicate glass tube coated with Al2O3 nanoparticle was used as test heater. The boiling behaviour was studied by using high speed camera. Result obtained for pool boiling shows enhancement in heat transfer for nanoparticle coated surface heater and compared with plain glass tube heater. Also heat transfer coefficient for nonuniformly coated nanoparticles was studied and compared with uniformly coated and plain glass tube. Coating effect of nanoparticles over glass tube increases its surface roughness and thereby creates more nucleation sites.

This paper presents the results of an experimental study of heat transfer in a pool boiling evaporator with porous insert. Different types of graphite foams were tested with the phase change coolant FC-72 in a designed thermosyphon. Comparisons between the graphite foams and a solid copper block show that the porous structure enhances pool boiling significantly. The boiling thermal resistance of the tested graphite foams was found to be about 2 times lower than that of the copper block. The bubble formation recorded by a high speed camera indicates that boiling from a graphite foam is more vigorous than from a copper block. The designed thermosyphon with graphite foam insert can remove heat fluxes of up to 112 W/cm2 with the maximum heater temperature maintained below 100°C.

Abstract A study of single bubbles growing on a microscale heater array kept at nominally constant temperature was performed. The behavior of bubbles nucleating at a single site at two different temperatures (22.5 K and 27.5 K superheat) is compared for saturated pool boiling of FC-72 at 1 atm. It is concluded that energy is transferred from the surface through similar heat transfer mechanisms at both superheats. Microlayer evaporation was observed to play a minor role in the overall heat transfer, with microconvection/transient conduction being the dominant mechanism. Evaluation of various heat transfer models are made.
