Hydrophobic porous membranes with pore-size gradient design for enhancing two-phase flow stability
The forced convection boiling exhibits an extremely high heat transfer rate, making it attractive for the effective cooling of electronic devices with high heat fluxes. However, the increase in the vapor fraction along the channel results in the instability of two-phase flow, which is harmful for the long-term safe operation of cooling systems. In this study, a gas-liquid two-phase flow visualization platform was designed, and the feasibility of using hydrophobic porous membranes for gas-liquid phase separation was verified through bubble trapping and liquid-phase blocking experiments. Experiments were conducted using deionized water and air at room temperature to investigate the effects of membrane pore-size, thickness, and gradient-pore-size design on gas-phase separation performance and two-phase flow stability. Under the inlet conditions with a gas flow rate of 1.29 × 10-³ kg/min and liquid flow rate of 0.6 kg/min, the 3 μm porous membrane reduced the pressure in the two-phase cavity by 49.2 %, decreased pressure fluctuations by 230 %, and significantly suppressed the fluctuations in the inlet-outlet pressure differential. Compared to a single-pore-size membrane of the same thickness, the 3 μm/0.1 μm gradient-pore-size membrane reduced the pressure in the two-phase cavity by 14.6 % and decreased pressure fluctuations by 40 %.
