Visualization and experimental analysis of Geyser boiling phenomena in two-phase thermosyphons

TL;DR: In this paper, a two-phase closed thermosyphon with a punctual heater was used to simulate the formation of a single bubble in a predetermined location and a high-speed camera allowed the qualitative analysis of bubble formation and sensors installed inside the thermosymphon allowed for quantitative characterization of the phenomena.

Experimental study of bubble dynamics of isolated bubbles in water pool boiling at subatmospheric pressures

TL;DR: In this paper, specific features of bubble dynamics in water pool boiling at low pressure in comparison with the atmospheric pressure were exposed, where experiments were conducted at saturation state from atmospheric pressure (T sat = 100 ° C ) down to 4.2 kPa ( T sat = 30 ° C ), with a single imposed heat flux at the heater.

The impact of filling level resolved: Capillary-assisted evaporation of water for adsorption heat pumps

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the evaporation performance of horizontal copper tubes with macroscopic fin structures, microporous coatings and the combination of both structures and found that the heat transfer is directly proportional to the tube surface wetted by capillary action.
