TL;DR: In this paper, two separate numerical models have been developed assuming homogeneous and annular flow boiling, and the governing equations have been solved from the grass-root level to predict the boiling front, pressure drop and thermal resistance as functions of exit pressure and heat input.

TL;DR: In this article, a method, apparatus and computer system are described for inverted vortex generator enhanced cooling, in which the inverted vortex generators are configured to dissipate heat from the at least one heated component.

TL;DR: In this article, a detailed scaling analysis of EHD convective transport is presented, taking into account the interplay of electrophoretic, dielectrophic, and electrostriction forces and the variable nature of the concerned thermophysical and electrical properties.

TL;DR: A critical value of the dimensionless strength of the alternating current electrothermal force above which the interface "breaks", resulting in the formation of isolated droplets is found, which has the potential to improve fundamental understanding and design optimization of various biomedical and physiological systems that involve flow of two or more immiscible fluids over chemically wetted surfaces.

TL;DR: In this article, the interplay of thermocapillary and electrothermal forces on interfacial dynamics is considered and the relative strength of interfacial forces and their interactions can be effectively used to control the capillary filling time as well as flow dynamics.
