Journal ArticleDOI

Nuclear magnetic resonance-based study of ordered layering on the surface of alumina nanoparticles in water

TL;DR: In this article, a thin ordered layer (∼ 1.4 nm) of water molecules surrounding each nanoparticle was found to increase the nanoparticle effective volumetric fraction.
Journal ArticleDOI

Alumina Nanoparticles Enhance the Flow Boiling Critical Heat Flux of Water at Low Pressure

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that a significant CHF enhancement can be achieved with as little as 0.01% by volume concentration of alumina nanoparticles in flow experiments at atmospheric pressure, low subcooling 20° C, and relatively high mass flux 1000 kg/m 2 s.
Journal ArticleDOI

Transient and Steady-State Experimental Comparison Study of Effective Thermal Conductivity of Al2O3∕Water Nanofluids

TL;DR: In this article, a comparison of the measured data obtained using these two different experimental systems at room temperature was conducted and the experimental data at higher temperatures were obtained with steady-state cut-bar method and compared with previously reported data obtained with a transient hot-wire method.
Journal ArticleDOI

Investigation of subcooled flow boiling and CHF using high-resolution diagnostics

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present an experimental methodology that enables accurate measurement of fundamental subcooled flow boiling quantities, such as nucleation site density, bubble growth and wait time, and bubble departure diameter, up to the Critical Heat Flux (CHF) limit.
Journal ArticleDOI

An experimental study of bubble departure diameter in subcooled flow boiling including the effects of orientation angle, subcooling, mass flux, heat flux, and pressure

TL;DR: In this article, the effects of orientation angle, subcooling, heat flux, mass flux, and pressure on bubble departure diameter in the isolated bubble regime of subcooled flow boiling were studied by high-speed video in a two-phase flow loop that can accommodate a wide range of flow conditions.
