Journal ArticleDOI
On the Potential of Galinstan-Based Minichannel and Minigap Cooling
TL;DR: In this paper, a first-order model to compute the total thermal resistance of gallium, indium, and tin eutectic heat sinks is presented. And the authors suggest that galinstan is a better coolant than water in such configurations, reducing thermal resistance by about 40%.
Journal ArticleDOI
Analysis of Galinstan-Based Microgap Cooling Enhancement Using Structured Surfaces
TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of using structured surfaces (SSs) to reduce the overall thermal resistance of Galinstan-based microgap cooling in the laminar flow regime was investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of Evaporation and Condensation at Menisci on Apparent Thermal Slip
TL;DR: In this article, the effects of evaporation and condensation at menisci on apparent thermal slip lengths for liquids suspended in the Cassie state on ridge-type structured surfaces using a conformal map and convolution were analyzed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Phase change and droplet dynamics for a free falling water droplet
TL;DR: In this paper, the phase change of free falling droplets in a sub-zero environment was numerically examined and it was shown that the internal circulation enhances heat transfer to the surrounding air and increases the nucleation phenomenon.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nusselt Numbers for Thermally Developing Couette Flow With Hydrodynamic and Thermal Slip
TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of hydrodynamic and thermal slip on heat transfer in a thermally developing, steady, laminar Couette flow are investigated, as various combinations of isothermal and adiabatic boundary conditions are along its surfaces.
