The working medium changes from subcooled liquid through flow boiling to superheated
vapor in actual once-through thermal equipment (such as once-through steam generators …

The boiling heat transfer is one of the most widely applied heat transfer processes in today's
industries. This study is an experimental investigation of the pool boiling heat transfer in a …

Nucleate boiling effectively dissipates heat through phase change, where heat is absorbed
during the transition from liquid to vapor. However, this heat dissipation is strongly limited by …

Pool boiling performance of NOVEC-649 was experimentally studied on microporous
surfaces prepared by an electrochemical deposition method. Microporous structures …

A benchmark activity on two-fluid simulations of high-pressure boiling upward flows in a pipe
is performed by 12 participants using different MCFD (Multiphase Computational Fluid …

The in-vessel retention system and ex-vessel retention system are very important to the
safety of nuclear power plants under severe accidents. While the success of such safety …

Modulated nanoparticle-coating surfaces were fabricated by an improved electrophoretic
deposition technique in this study. Pool boiling experiments were studied for HFE-7200 on …

CHF is the maximal limit of heat flux in boiling heat transfer, therefore, it is a crucial
parameter that has a fundamental impact on the security and economy of the nuclear …

The influences of interactions between copper plate and nano-water droplets on wettability
with different solid–liquid potential parameters were studied, and the spread of droplets was …

Critical heat flux (CHF) is an essential consideration for the economy and safety of the
equipment operation. To understand the CHF triggering mechanism and two-phase …
