The Behavior Of Gas Bubbles Entrained In The Liquid Film Of Horizontal Annular Flow
Small entrained vapor bubbles can have a significant impact on the evaporation or condensation of a thin liquid film as may be found in the annular flow of refrigerant in a heat exchanger. For example, past work has indicated that unattached small vapor bubbles serve as sites for vaporization within a film that, on average, would be too thin to support nucleate boiling. Vapor entrained in a thi...
متن کاملSupplementary information on evaporation kinetics
Although evaporation of solvent from a clean surface can be understood qualitatively in terms of spinodal dewetting or nucleation and growth, the detailed dynamics resulting from these mechanisms are not necessarily simple. In both homogeneous and heterogeneous limits kinetic feedback can generate nonexponential decay of solvent density with several characteristic time scales. For homogeneous e...
متن کاملEvaporation-induced cavitation in nanofluidic channels.
Cavitation, known as the formation of vapor bubbles when liquids are under tension, is of great interest both in condensed matter science as well as in diverse applications such as botany, hydraulic engineering, and medicine. Although widely studied in bulk and microscale-confined liquids, cavitation in the nanoscale is generally believed to be energetically unfavorable and has never been exper...
متن کاملHeat Transfer Mechanisms During Flow Boiling in Microchannels
The forces due to surface tension and momentum change during evaporation, in conjunction with the forces due to viscous shear and inertia, govern the two-phase flow patterns and the heat transfer characteristics during flow boiling in microchannels. These forces are analyzed in this paper, and two new nondimensional groups, K1 and K2 , relevant to flow boiling phenomenon are derived. These grou...
متن کاملNumerical Study of the Effect of Surface Tension on Vapor Bubble Growth during Flow Boiling in Microchannels
Microchannel heat sinks typically consist of parallel channels connected through a common header. During flow boiling random temporal and spatial formation of vapor bubbles may lead to reversed flow in certain channels which causing an early CHF condition. Inside the microchannels the liquid surface tension forces is expected to play an important role and impact the vapor bubble growth and corr...
