... applicable. Understanding this form of boiling suggests that the “design” of the boiling curve may be possible by setting the initial parameters. Vapor bubble growth experiments versus the two-fluid system theory (due to initial delay, experiments’ time shifted by 6 ms) As seen in Sec. 3...

... Boiling Cooling Heat Transfer Sprays Two-Phase Vaporization Evaporative spray cooling has been exhibited to be an effective method of removing high heat fluxes from surfaces with low superheat. For water as the working fluid, a spray cooling heat flux of 1000 W/cm 2 was reached 1 . The heat...

...Michael Epstein This paper presents a one-dimensional steady-state model of heat and water vapor transport just beneath an ablating concrete surface. In the model an evaporation front separates a dry porous region through which water vapor flows to the ablation front from a semi-infinite region...

.... The contribution of the thermal expansion and vaporization of silicon is negligibly small. In this time scale, one can observe only the shock-wave generation and propagation as the resultant fluid behavior. Any convective motion of the ambient fluid is not seen. That means the compressibility and inertia prevail...

... stagnation flow equations for the heat transfer and fluid flow phenomena are derived for the region near the centerline of the laser beam. The analysis accounts for conduction in the solid, conduction, and convection in the melt layer, and the latent heats of melting and vaporization. The stagnation flow...

...W. H. Chen The flame structure and stability, as well as the vaporization rates of twin droplets exposed to a high-temperature, partially premixed flow are investigated in the present study. Two important parameters of the Reynolds number and ambient equivalence ratio are taken into consideration...

Farrelly There is a growing body of experimental evidence showing that the kinetics of nascent vapor produced during pulsed laser heating of metals cannot always be ascribed to the surface thermal conditions. Some investigators have proposed that the discharge...
