Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleMathematical Model Predicting the Critical Heat Flux of Nuclear ReactorsChien-Hsiung Lee, Lih-Wu Hourng, Kuo-Wei LinBoiling heat transfer system keeps a nuclear power plant safe without getting over-heated. Crisis will occur if the dissipated heat flux exceeds the critical heat flux value. This study assumes the flow boiling system at high heat flux is characterized by the existence of a very thin liquid layer, known as the &#34sublayer&#34, which is trapped between the heated surface … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 12 · 12 Dec 2012 · 7,695 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEffect of Evaporator Section Lengths and Working Fluids on Operational Limit of Closed Loop Oscillating Heat Pipes with Check Valves (CLOHP/CV)P. Meena, S. Rittidech, P. TammasaengThis research aims to the effect of evaporator section lengths and working fluids on operational limit of closed loop oscillating heat pipes with check valves (CLOHP/CV) with R123 Ethanol and Water were used as the working fluids. A set of CLOHP/CV was made of copper tubes in combination of following dimension: 1.77 mm inside diameter: 10 turns: 5, 10 and … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2009 · 7,776 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHomogeneous Bubbles during Jet Impingement QuenchingM. A. Islam, S. F. AhmedProblem statement: Jet impingement quenching has a very effective and large cooling potential and is a very effective means of cooling for many applications. It gives rise to heterogeneous and/or homogeneous nucleation of bubbles, which is yet to be explored. Approach: Analytically investigate the phenomenon that happened during a brief contact of a water jet impinging on a hot surface. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2010 · 7,162 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Inclination Angle on Performance Limit of a Closed-End Oscillating Heat PipeT. Hudakorn, P. Terdtoon, P. SakulchangsatjataiThis study presents the effect of inclination angle on the performance limit of a Closed-End Oscillating Heat Pipe (CEOHP). The study was divided into 2 corresponding parts. The first part was visual study. The CEOHP was made of Pyrex glass tube with the inner diameter of 1.0 mm, evaporator length of 50 mm and had 10 meandering turns. The lengths … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2008 · 7,516 accessesView PDF Cite
