Abstract
Design of enhanced boiling heat transfer surfaces requires understanding of interactions between phenomena, which occur in boiling. For the observation of the boiling phenomena, especially interaction between nucleation sites and coalescence between growing bubbles on thin heating foil, active nucleation sites formation in bounded space in microchannels from 5x5 to 50x50 micrometers and enhanced heat transfer on modulated porous layer, a digital high-speed camera, high-speed infrared camera, microscope and liquid crystal thermography will be used. The ability to predict the boiling condition from the surface characteristics would enable the performance of boiling heat transfer surfaces to be optimized. Experimental results will be basis for the modelling of the heat transfer in boiling on the thin heating wall using developed hybrid model.
