As the heat dissipation requirements of micro-electronic component systems have increased
by magnitude, scientists and engineers have shifted their focus from traditional single-phase …

Cooling of PV panels is a critical issue in the design and operation of concentrated
photovoltaic (CPV) technology. Due to high cell temperature and non-uniform temperature …

Copper foam (with porosity 97% and pore density 35 pores per inch) based heat sink
without phase change material (PCM) and copper foam/PCM composites heat sinks are …

Phase change materials (PCMs) are a better choice for thermal management if their low
thermal conductivity could be dealt with as this limits the heat transfer rates during charging …

Since the second edition of Liquid-Vapor Phase-Change Phenomena was written, research
has substantially enhanced the understanding of the effects of nanostructured surfaces …

Transition between nucleate and film boiling potentially causes dramatic temperature
changes during fluxcontrolled operations, which may lead to catastrophic equipment …

The present work has been undertaken with an aim to address major challenges during two-
phase flow boiling in microchannels. A comprehensive review of literatures has been …

Cooling of photovoltaic cells is one of the main concerns when designing concentrating
photovoltaic systems. Cells may experience both short-term (efficiency loss) and long-term …

This paper is the first of a two-part study concerning measurement and prediction of
saturated flow boiling heat transfer in a water-cooled micro-channel heat sink. In this paper …

“With the fundamentals of microscale flow and species transport well developed, the recent
trend in microfluidics has been to work towards the development of integrated devices which …
