The cooling system using boiling two-phase phenomena attracts much attention because of its high heat removal potential. Experiments on the increase of CHF for flow boiling in narrow channels by improved liquid supply were conducted for the development of high-performance space cold plates. A large surface of 150mm in heated length and 30mm in width with grooves of an apex angle of 90 deg, 0.5mm in depth and 1mm in pitch was employed. A structure of narrow heated channel between parallel plates with an unheated auxiliary channel was devised and tested by using water for different combinations of gap sizes and volumetric flow rates, where inlet of the main heated channel and the outlet of auxiliary unheated channel were closed in order to prevent the flow instability observed frequently at low flow rate for parallel two channels. The data were compared with those for the two parallel channels. CHF values of 2×106W/m2 were obtained for the improved configuration. For gap sizes of 2mm and 5mm at high volumetric flow rate larger than 3.60l/min, the extension of dry-patches were observed at the upstream location of the main heated channel resulting burnout not at the downstream but at the upstream. The values of pressure drop for gap size of 2mm were higher than that for gap size of 5mm. When the performance of cooling system was evaluated by the pump power ignoring its variation of efficiency with volumetric flow rate, i.e., the power defined as the product of the pressure drop and the total volumetric flow rate, higher values of CHF were obtained for gap size of 5mm as far as the same pump power was concerned.","PeriodicalId":381569,"journal":{"name":"Progress in Multiphase Flow Research","volume":"6 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-06-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130283482","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Importance of accuracy of the finite difference scheme for viscous term at interface between different size cells was confirmed. Effect of the calculative thickness of interface in FT simulations was evaluated by comparing the results with and without AMR.

The tubes are made of Pyrex glass, and have two kinds of inner diameter (10mm and 13.6mm). The thermal data reveals that the quenching time during which the inner wall temperature became equal to the liquid nitrogen temperature under upflow conditions is less than that under downflow conditions. The flow visualization data reveals that the droplet size and flow derangement under upflow conditions were greater than those under downflow conditions. This flow behavior leads to an increase in the cooling rate of the tube wall under upflow conditions.","PeriodicalId":381569,"journal":{"name":"Progress in Multiphase Flow Research","volume":"2007 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-03-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129067656","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The integration enables us to cover a wide range of d*=d/Δx, where d is the particle diameter and Δx the grid size, and to perform various kinds of multiphase CFD such as standard interface tracking, particle tracking and multi-fluid simulations, and hybrid simulations by making an arbitrary combination of ITM, PTM and MFM.

In this study, the effect of the surface wettability of the membrane on monodispersed nanobubble formation, using various surface-modified membranes, was examined. The bubbles were generated by forcing air through a surface-modified membrane with mean pore diameters of 72, 210 and 530 nm into distilled water containing 0.3 wt.% of sodium dodecyl sulfate. The membranes were chemically modified with different silane coupler reagents and their surface wettability was evaluated from the contact angle between the membrane surface and the water phase. The contact angle, θ, could be controlled by the number of carbon atoms of the alkyl group in the reagent and/or the concentration of the reagent. Nanobubbles with a narrow diameter distribution were generated from a membrane with θ 45°. In this case, an increased contact angle brought about an increase in the mean bubble diameter and a decrease in the monodispersity of the bubbles.","PeriodicalId":381569,"journal":{"name":"Progress in Multiphase Flow Research","volume":"39 2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127048473","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
