Journal ArticleDOI
Visualization of bubble detachment and coalescence under the influence of a nonuniform electric field
Zan Liu,Cila Herman,Dieter Mewes +2 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of a nonuniform electric field on the formation, coalescence and detachment of single bubbles and pairs of air bubbles injected into a stagnant, isothermal liquid through orifices is studied to identify characteristic bubble behavior patterns.
Journal ArticleDOI
Electric field effect on bubble detachment in reduced gravity environment
Estelle Iacona,Estelle Iacona,Cila Herman,Cila Herman,Shinan Chang,Shinan Chang,Zan Liu,Zan Liu +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the behavior of individual air bubbles injected through an orifice into an electrically insulating liquid under the influence of a static electric field and showed that these parameters significantly affect bubble behavior, shape, volume and dimensions at detachment.
Journal ArticleDOI
Heat transfer and bubble detachment in subcooled pool boiling from a downward-facing microheater array in a nonuniform electric field.
Zan Liu,Cila Herman,Jungho Kim +2 more
TL;DR: Boiling heat transfer results with and without the electric field are presented andconsiderably greater heat transfer enhancement was measured than under similar conditions in +1 g.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Heat Transfer and Bubble Detachment in Subcooled Pool Boiling From a Microheater Array Under the Effect of a Nonuniform Electric Field
Zan Liu,Cila Herman,Jungho Kim +2 more
TL;DR: In this article, the effects of a nonuniform electric field on vapor bubble detachment and heat transfer rate were studied in pool boiling at different subcooled conditions for various wall temperatures.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bubble Formation and Detachment in Variable Gravity Environment Under the Influence of Electric Fields
TL;DR: In this paper, the formation and detachment of air bubbles injected into a stagnant, isothermal liquid through an orifice in a plane surface were studied at various reduced gravity levels under the influence of electric fields.
