Confined jet impingement with boiling offers unique and attractive performance characteristics for thermal management of high heat flux components. Two-phase operation of jet impingement has been shown to provide high heat transfer coefficients while maintaining a uniform temperature over a target surface. This can be achieved with minimal increases in pumping power compared to single-phase operation. To investigate further enhancements in heat transfer coefficients and increases in the maximum heat flux supported by two-phase jet impingement, an experimental study of surface enhancements is performed using the dielectric working fluid HFE-7100. The performance of a single, 3.75 mm-diameter jet orifice is compared across four distinct copper target surfaces of varying enhancement scales: a baseline smooth flat surface, a flat surface coated with a microporous layer, a surface with macroscale area enhancement (extended square pin fins), and a hybrid surface on which the pin fins are coated with the microporous layer. The heat transfer performance of each surface is compared in single- and two-phase operation at three volumetric flow rates (450 ml/min, 900 ml/min, and 1800 ml/min); area-averaged heat transfer parameters and pressure drop are reported. The mechanisms resulting in enhanced performance for the different surfaces are identified, with a special focus on the coated pin fins. This hybrid surface showed the best enhancement of all those tested, and resulted in an extension of critical heat flux (CHF) by a maximum of 2.42 times compared to the smooth flat surface at the lowest flow rate investigated; no increase in the overall pressure drop was measured.

Microgrooved Surface

This paper investigates the heat transfer and pressure drop analysis of micro grooved surfaces utilized in evaporators and condensers of a two-phase flow cooling loop. These devices utilize the vapor-liquid phase change to transfer large amounts of heat, and they offer substantially higher heat flux performance with lower pumping power than most liquid cooling technologies. Microgrooved surfaces, combined with force-fed evaporation and condensation technology discussed in this paper yield high heat transfer coefficients with low pressure drops. Our most recent results, aiming to test the limits of the technology, demonstrated dissipation of almost 1kW/cm2 from silicon electronics using HFE 7100 as the working fluid. In a compact two phase system, the heat generated by the electronic components can be absorbed by microgrooved evaporators and rejected through the microgrooved surface condensers to liquid cooled slots with high heat transfer coefficients and low pressure drops on the refrigerant side. In the case of air-cooling, the same microgrooved surface heat exchanger can reject heat with a heat transfer coefficient of 3847 W/cm2 and a pressure drop of 4156 Pa. These heat transfer processes have the added capability of being combined and used together in a self-contained system cooled either by liquid or air.

Heat-transfer coefficients are reported for one surface, a pin-fin surface with 50 mm square base area. The In Line pin-fin surface comprised of 1 mm square pin fins that were 1 mm high and located on a 2 mm square pitch array it that covering the base. The channel was 1 mm high and had a glass top plate. The data were produced while boiling R113 at atmospheric pressure. For this surface, the mass flux range was 50 - 250 kW/m2s and the heat flux range was 5 - 140 kW/m2. The results obtained have been compared with standard correlations for tube bundles. The measured heat-transfer coefficients for the pin-fin surface are slightly higher any surface. It is dependent on heat flux and reasonably independent of mass flux and vapor quality. Thus, heat transfer is probably dominated by nucleate boiling and is increased by the pin fins due to increasing in area and heat-transfer coefficient, the pin-fin pressure drops were typically larger than other values.

This paper presents an experimental investigation of the forced convective boiling of refrigerant HCFC123 in a mini-tube. The inner diameters of the test tubes, D, were 0.51 mm and 0.30 mm. First, two-phase frictional pressure drops were measured under adiabatic conditions and compared with the correlations for conventional tubes. The frictional pressure drop data were lower than the correlation for conventional tubes. However, the data were qualitatively in accord with those for conventional tubes and were correlated in the form φL2−1/Xtt. Next, heat transfer coefficients were measured under the conditions of constant heat flux and compared with those for conventional tubes and for pool boiling. The heat transfer characteristics for mini-tubes were different from those for conventional tubes and quite complicated. The heat transfer coefficients for D = 0.51 mm increased with heat flux but were almost independent of mass flux. Although the heat transfer coefficients were higher than those for a conventional tube with D = 10.3 mm and for pool boiling in the low quality region, they decreased gradually with increasing quality. The heat transfer coefficients for D = 0.30 mm were higher than those for D = 0.51 mm and were almost independent of both mass flux and heat flux.

Experimental measurements of multiple nozzle submerged jet array impingement single-phase and boiling heat transfer were made using FC-72 and 1 cm square copper pin fin arrays, having equal width and spacing of 0.1 and 0.2 mm, with aspect ratios from 1 to 5. Arrays of 25 and 100 nozzles were used, with diameters of 0.25 to 1.0 mm providing nozzle area from 5 to 20 mm2 (5 to 20% of the heat source base area). Flow rates of 2.5 to 10 cm3/s (0.15 to 0.6 l/min) were studied, with nozzle velocities from 0.125 to 2 m/s. Single nozzles and smooth surfaces were also evaluated for comparison. Single-phase heat transfer coefficients (based on planform area) from 2.4 to 49.3 kW/m2 K were measured, while critical heat flux varied from 45 to 395 W/cm2. Correlations of the single-phase heat transfer coefficient and critical heat flux as functions of pin fin dimensions, number of nozzles, nozzle area and liquid flow rate are provided.

Abstract A thermoreflectance method to measure wall temperature in two-phase annular flow is described. In high heat flux conditions, momentary dry-out occurs as the liquid film vaporizes, resulting in dramatic decreases in heat transfer coefficient. Simultaneous liquid and vapor thermoreflectance measurements allow calculations of instantaneous and time-averaged heat transfer coefficients. Validation, calibration and uncertainty of the technique are discussed.

The effect of a variety of surface enhancements on the heat transfer achieved with an array of impinging jets is experimentally investigated using the dielectric fluid HFE-7100 at different volumetric flow rates. The performance of a 5 × 5 array of jets, each 0.75 mm in diameter, is compared to that of a single 3.75 mm diameter jet with the same total open orifice area, in single-and two-phase operation. Four different target copper surfaces are evaluated: a baseline smooth flat surface, a flat surface coated with a microporous layer, a surface with macroscale area enhancement (extended square pin–fins), and a hybrid surface on which the pin–fins are coated with the microporous layer; area-averaged heat transfer and pressure drop measurements are reported. The array of jets enhances the single-phase heat transfer coefficients by 1.13–1.29 times and extends the critical heat flux (CHF) on all surfaces compared to the single jet at the same volumetric flow rates. Additionally, the array greatly enhances the heat flux dissipation capability of the hybrid coated pin–fin surface, extending CHF by 1.89–2.33 times compared to the single jet on this surface, with a minimal increase in pressure drop. The jet array coupled with the hybrid enhancement dissipates a maximum heat flux of 205.8 W/cm2 (heat input of 1.33 kW) at a flow rate of 1800 ml/min (corresponding to a jet diameter-based Reynolds number of 7800) with a pressure drop incurred of only 10.9 kPa. Compared to the single jet impinging on the smooth flat surface, the array of jets on the coated pin–fin enhanced surface increased CHF by a factor of over four at all flow rates.

Heat transfer to an evaporating refrigerant and/or dielectric liquid in a microgap channel can provide very high heat transfer coefficients and volumetric cooling rates. Recent studies at Maryland have established the dominance of the annular flow regime in such microgap channels and related the observed high-quality peak of an M-shaped heat transfer coefficient curve to the onset of local dryout. The present study utilizes infrared thermography to locate such nascent dryout regions and operating conditions. Data obtained with a 210 micron microgap channel, operated with a mass flux of 195.2 kg/m2-s and heat fluxes of 10.3 to 26 W/cm2 are presented and discussed.

Microchannel Array

Heat transfer coefficients and bubble dynamics are reported for two-phase water flow in an array of 13 equally spaced microchannels over an area of 1 cm2. Each channel has Dh = 451 ± 3 8 μm, W/H = 0.8, and L/Dh = 22.2. Uniform heat flux is applied through the base, and wall temperatures are determined from thermocouple readings corrected for heat conduction effects. The upper surface is insulated and transparent. Single-phase heat transfer coefficients are obtained for 216 < Re < 2530 and 216 < G < 4100 kg/m2s and are in good agreement with comparable trends of existing correlations for developing flow and heat transfer, although a difference is seen due to the insulated upper surface. Two-phase experiments are run to determine overall heat transfer coefficients and bubble dynamics for a mass flux of 221 < G < 466 kg/sm2 and heat flux of 25 < q < 178 W/cm2. Heat transfer coefficients normalized with mass flux exhibit a trend comparable to that of available studies that use similar thermal boundary conditions. Two-phase flow visualization via shows expanding vapor slug flow as the primary flow regime, but bubbly flow and nucleation leading to elongated bubble flow are also observed. Analysis of bubble dynamics reveals a t1/3 dependence for bubble growth, and flow reversal is observed and quantified. Different speeds of the phase fronts are observed at the leading and trailing edges of elongated slugs once a bubble diameter equals the channel width. Bubble formation, growth, coalescence and detachment at the outlet of the array are characterized by the Weber number.

Flow boiling in microchannels has been extensively studied in the past decade. Instabilities, low critical heat flux (CHF) values, and low heat transfer coefficients have been identified as the major shortcomings preventing its implementation in practical high heat flux removal systems. A novel open microchannel design with uniform and tapered manifolds (OMM) is presented to provide stable and highly enhanced heat transfer performance. The effects of the gap height and flow rate on the heat transfer performance have been experimentally studied with water. The critical heat fluxes (CHFs) and heat transfer coefficients obtained with the OMM are significantly higher than the values reported by previous researchers for flow boiling with water in microchannels. A record heat flux of 506 W/cm2 with a wall superheat of 26.2 °C was obtained for a gap size of 0.127 mm. The CHF was not reached due to heater power limitation in the current design. A maximum effective heat transfer coefficient of 290,000 W/m2 °C was obtained at an intermediate heat flux of 319 W/cm2 with a gap of 0.254 mm at 225 mL/min. The flow boiling heat transfer was found to be insensitive to flow rates between 40–333 mL/min and gap sizes between 0.127–1.016 mm, indicating the dominance of nucleate boiling. The OMM geometry is promising to provide exceptional performance that is particularly attractive in meeting the challenges of high heat flux removal in electronics cooling applications.
