Abstract Visual analysis allows an estimate of different local boiling characteristics including bubble growth rate, departure diameters and frequencies of nucleation, nucleation site density and evolution of bubbles and dry spots in time. At the same time, visual determination of the presented characteristics in case of big amounts of data requires the development of the appropriate software which will allow not only determination of bubble location, but also an estimate of their sizes based on high-speed video. The presented problem can be solved by using the instance segmentation approach based on a convolutional neural network. In the presented work Mask R-CNN network architecture was used for estimation of the local boiling characteristics.

The paper presents the results of an experimental study of the effect of hydrophobic fluoropolymer coating on the multiscale characteristics of heat transfer at water boiling. New experimental data on dynamics of vapor bubble growth and detachment, evolution of contact line, nucleation site density, heat transfer coefficient were obtained using high-speed imaging techniques, including infrared thermography and video recording from the bottom side of transparent ITO heater. It was shown, that the using of hydrophobic fluoropolymer coating leads to heat transfer enhancement, to decrease of the superheat temperature at the onset of boiling, to increase of the active nucleation site density and to significant change in the dynamics of growth and departure of vapor bubbles and the evolution of the triple contact line.

Using deionized water as working medium, studies on visualization of the behavior of subcooled boiling bubbles in narrow rectangular channels have been conducted at atmospheric pressure, with the help of a high-speed digital camera. The effects of wall superheat, fluid subcooling and mass flux on the bubble dynamic model of nucleation site density, bubble departure frequency and bubble departure diameter were investigated. This paper analyzed the visual graphic results and obtained quantitative values about bubble nucleation site density, bubble departure frequency and bubble departure diameter under different conditions. Based on the results, wall nucleate boiling models in the conventional channel put forward by Nilanjana Basu have been corrected. The new correlation agrees reasonably well with existing experimental data in 2mm narrow rectangular channel.

Quenching experiments were performed with hot stainless steel spheres in a pool of water-based nanofluids in the presence of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) of various sizes. In order to explore the size effect, a test matrix was developed by choosing multi-walled CNTs with lengths from 1 μm to 5 μm and outer diameters from 30 nm to 60 nm. The concentration was fixed at 0.5% by mass for all types of CNTs. The initial temperature was 400 °C and the transient temperature variations at the center of the sphere were recorded as quenching curves. By establishing a lumped capacitance model, the transient surface heat flux variations were obtained as boiling curves. The original and boiled surfaces were both subjected to a series of characterizations to determine the changes in morphology, roughness, and wettability to identify the effects of CNT size on the surface properties of the formed deposition layers as well as to elucidate the mechanisms for regulation of the boiling and quenching behaviors. The results suggested that the critical heat flux (CHF) and the Leidenfrost point (LFP) are enhanced to various degrees due to the discrepancy in the size of the CNTs in nanofluids. It was shown that the CNTs deposited on the surfaces create various morphologies depending on their size. The CNTs with a length of 5 μm and a diameter of 60 nm exhibited the most significant effect on the boiling behaviors. In comparison to CNTs with a shorter length of 1 μm, the 5 μm long CNTs were much easier to form porous layers. The results of the contact angle and roughness tests showed that the porous layers tend to affect the surface roughness instead of surface wettability. The increases of the nucleation site density and surface roughness due to the presence of porous layers were identified as the primary cause for the modified boiling behaviors during quenching.

The present research is an experimental investigation of nucleate pool boiling heat transfer enhancement on a surface with micro/nano-scaled surface structures. Glancing Angle Deposition (GLAD) was employed to fabricate porous surfaces in this study. The thin film microstructure consists of closely packed columns oriented in the plane of incidence formed due to a self-shadowing mechanism. Boiling heat transfer from the nano-structured surface was compared to that of a smooth reference surface and the commercial High Flux surface. The results of this study have shown that nano-structured films created by the GLAD process increase the nucleation site density as compared to the smooth surface. This research has opened up new areas in the field of heat transfer, which motivate new surface coating concepts to enhance the understanding of boiling heat transfer on nano-structured films.

Nucleation Site Density

It has been well established that the rate of heat transfer associated with boiling systems is strongly dependent on the nucleation site density. Over many years attempts have been made to predict nucleation site density in boiling systems using a variety of techniques. With the exception of specially prepared surfaces, these attempts have met with little success. This paper presents an experimental investigation of nucleation site density measured on roughly polished brass and stainless steel surfaces for gas nucleation and pool boiling over a large parameter space. The fluids used for this study, distilled water and ethanol, are moderately wetting and highly wetting, respectively. Using distilled water it has been observed that the trends of nucleation site density versus the inverse of the critical radius are similar for pool boiling and gas nucleation. The nucleation site density is higher for gas nucleation than for pool boiling. An unexpected result has been observed with ethanol as the heat transfer fluid, which casts doubt on the general validity of heterogeneous nucleation theory. Due to flooding, few sites are active on the brass surface and at most two are active on the stainless steel surface during gas nucleation experiments. However, nucleation sites readily form in large concentration on both the brass and stainless steel surfaces during pool boiling. The nucleation site densities for the rough and mirror polished brass surfaces are also compared. It shows that there is no large difference for the measured nucleation site density.

SiC growth on as-received and striated Si(001) substrates was studied. SiC films were grown by pulsed-jet chemical vapor deposition using monomethylsilane as a gas source at 780°C. Two kinds of Si surfaces were prepared. One was an as-received Si(001) surface and the other was an striated (scratched) Si(001) surface. It was found that nucleation rate of SiC is quite different between these two kinds of surfaces. The film growth rate was very low for the as-received Si(001) surface compared with the striated surface, and after 8 hours of growth hardly any film was grown and only square-shaped islands were observed. On the other hand, for the undulant substrate about 100nm thick 3C-SiC film was grown after 8 hours of deposition. This film growth rate difference appears to be due to the difference in density of nucleation sites. For the as-received Si(001) surface, nucleation site density appears to be quite small due to the atomically flat surface. On the other hand, for the undulant surface, nucleation site density was large enough for the film to grow faster.
