Advances and Unsolved Issues in Pulsating Heat Pipes

TL;DR: Pulsating (or oscillating) heat pipes (PHP or OHP) are new two-phase heat transfer devices that rely on the oscillatory flow of liquid slug and vapor plug in a long miniature tube bent into many turns.

Dynamics of vapor bubbles and boiling heat transfer

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors derived analytical expressions for bubble radii and growth rates in an analysis of surface boiling at high heat transfer rates and showed that the product of bubble radius and radial velocity is a constant.
