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.

Saturated pool boiling on vertically oriented, copper, wavy-fin surfaces in water at reduced pressures is investigated. A lamination of fine-filament, wire mesh is an effective surface enhancement for boiling since the surface can be configured to provide a very high density of potential bubble nucleation sites. Two surfaces are considered: a 0.75mm thick 4-layer laminate with approximately 4000 pores per cm2 and a 0.42mm thick 8-layer laminate with approximately 26,000 pores per cm2. The results show that the 8-layer laminate outperforms the 4-layer laminate. At reduced pressures a reduction in performance is seen for both surfaces. A semi-empirical boiling model is developed. The model predicts the boiling performance of our data within an error of 30%. The model shows that shorter fins improve boiling performance.

Abstract The manipulation of micro- or nano-structure is a promising method to improve pool boiling heat transfer performance. However, most studies just focus on the micro- or nano-structure without considering the combination micro- and nano-structure. In this paper, we fabricated synergistic microchannel, nano-structure, and micro-nano structure surface on the nickel by different technologies. Pool boiling of DI water under saturated condition was experimentally investigated. Result shows at the wall superheat of 18 K, the heat transfer coefficient of micro-nano structure, nano-structure and synergistic micro-channel surface are 16400, 13050, and 13400 W/m2 K higher 89%, 50%, and 54% than that of smooth surface, respectively. The improved heat transfer is attributed to active nucleation sites and capillary flow.

Heat transfer for pool boiling with flaxes in the range of 5 × 102 5 × 104 Btu/(ft2 hr) and the associated excess of wall over saturation temperatures are presented, primarily for atmospheric pressure, for vertical tubes in water, ethanol, and acetone, bare or wrapped with screen or felt metal. For the wrapped tubes, this performance is given also for evaporation into surrounding saturated vapor with the liquid being supplied by the wick: this is the significant mode in respect to heat pipe applications. For this mode maximum evaporation rates are also indicated and it is shown that this maximum can be rationalized either in terms of a partially full wick with conduction transfer to the evaporation surface or in terms of a full wick with vapor holes originating at nucleation sites on the tube surface.
