Journal ArticleDOI
Heat transfer enhancement of dropwise condensation on a vertical surface with round shaped grooves
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated heat transfer characteristics of dropwise condensation on the surface with grooves cut in a round shape, and they found that the heat transfer on the vertical grooved surface was enhanced in the range of groove width from 2 to 3 mm.
Journal ArticleDOI
The effect of polyvinylidene chloride coating thickness on promotion of dropwise steam condensation
TL;DR: In this paper, a polyvinylidene chloride coating is proposed as a promoter of dropwise steam condensation and the effect of coating thickness is investigated in regard to promotion of the condensation.
Journal ArticleDOI
On the enhancement of filmwise condensation heat transfer by means of the coexistence with dropwise condensation sections
TL;DR: In this article, the authors aimed at obtaining higher condensation heat flux by distributing dropwise condensation surfaces of optimal width promoted by an organic coating among filmwise surfaces, and to get higher mean overall heat transfer coefficients in condensing systems.
Journal Article
Heat transfer from a rotating cylinder with and without cross flow
TL;DR: In this article, the local and average coefficients of heat transfer from a rotating cylinder in a uniform flow were measured by Mach-Zehnder interferometer with visual observation of flow patterns.
Journal ArticleDOI
Occurrence and Stability of Microbubble Emission Boiling.
Ryo Kubo,Satoshi Kumagai +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used temperature fluctuations of a heat transfer surface and pressure fluctuations in the liquid near the surface to classify microbubble emission boiling (MEB) into two regimes: stormy and calm.
