An experimental facility is developed to investigate critical heat flux (CHF) of saturated flow boiling of Refrigerant-123 (R-123) in microchannels. Six parallel Microchannels with cross sectional area of 0.2 mm × 0.2 mm are fabricated on a copper block, and a Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) cover is then placed on top of the copper block to serve as a transparent cover through which flow patterns and boiling phenomena could be observed. A resistive cartridge heater is used to provide a uniform heat flux to the microchannels. The experimental test facility is designed to accommodate test sections with different microchannel geometries. The mass flow rate, inlet pressure, inlet temperature of Refrigerant-123, and the electric current supplied to the resistive cartridge heater are controlled to provide quantitative information near the CHF condition in microchannels. A high-speed camera is used to observe and interpret flow characteristics of CHF condition in microchannels.
