Flow patterns are essential and useful to model the interfacial structures and heat transfer in
gas-liquid two-phase flow. However, the current two-phase flow patterns classification …

Flow boiling heat transfer tests were conducted to evaluate the Critical Heat Flux (CHF) and
Heat Transfer Coefficient (HTC) of conventional and accident tolerant fuel (ATF) cladding …

In this paper, we report on the recent development of an advanced microscale heat sink,
termed as piranha pin fin (PPF). A 200 μ m deep microchannel embedded with PPFs was …

This article presents a steady-state 3-D conjugate heat transfer and single-phase liquid flow
simulation in the microchannel heat sink (MCHs). The 3-D governing equations with …

Study of rarefied gas flow in converging and diverging cross sections is crucial to the
development of micro-nozzles and micro-thrusters. In other practical cases too, a …

The aim of this article is to introduce a novel approach to identifying flow regimes and void
fractions in microchannel flow boiling, which is based on binary image segmentation using …

Experiments of highly subcooled flow boiling of water in horizontal macrochannels with
orthogonal cross-section are performed. Explored parameters are channel height (3 and 10 …

The need to understand the flow behavior and film thickness in the single screw expander is
very crucial since it is known to be a complex system due to the existence of various flow …

This paper presents a visualization study of flow boiling of binary mixtures (methanol–water
and ethanol–water mixtures) in a diverging microchannel. The flow pattern and transition …

This paper focuses on experimentally studying the pressure drop characteristics for two-
phase flow in microchannels of hydraulic diameter 109 μ\rmm, over a relatively large range …
