Physics and modeling of liquid films in pulsating heat pipes
X Zhang, VS Nikolayev - Physical Review Fluids, 2023 - APS
The present study reports an original physical model for simulating pulsating heat pipes
(PHPs). Their high heat performance is due to the phase change over thin liquid films. The …
