There has been increasing interest of late in nanofluid boiling and its use in heat transfer enhancement. This article covers recent advances in the last decade by researchers in both pool boiling and convective boiling applications, with nanofluids as the working fluid. The available data in the literature is reviewed in terms of enhancements, and degradations in the nucleate boiling heat tran...

Abstract Pool boiling heat transfer offers high-performance cooling opportunities for thermal problems of electronics limited with high fluxes. Therefore, many researchers have been extensively studying over the last six decades. This paper presents a critical literature review various parametric effects on pool and flux (CHF) such as pressure, subcooling, surface topography, orientation, worki...
