To date the usage of biphilic surfaces is one of the most promising ways to simultaneously
enhance heat transfer and increase critical heat fluxes during boiling. However, the vast …

The mechanistic understanding of the intrinsic thermal safety is of significance to enhance
the sustainability of Light Water Reactors (LWRs) especially during power transients. Many …

We present the results of experimental investigations aimed at evaluating the thermal–
hydraulic performance of chromium-coated zircaloy, ie, one of the most promising accident …

Many heat transfer processes do not allow temperature measurements with advanced
instruments like IR cameras, and thus require the use of thermocouples–often inserted …

Today the problem of the boiling improvement is directly related to the heating surface
modification at the micro-and nanoscale. As was shown by different authors the hemi …

This work consists of an experimental study of the microscale physical phenomena
occurring during the growth of a single bubble attached to the heater at nucleate boiling. The …

Despite the contributions of modern business practices to environmentally sustainable
transformation, there is not enough information on different types of green technologies and …

The paper considers the problem of nonparametric estimation of nonlinear characteristic in
the FIR Wiener system. Methods proposed so far have suffered from the so-called 'curse of …

Boiling crisis is an important phenomenon that affects the performance and safety of
pressurized water reactors (PWRs). Accurate predictions of the boiling crisis are difficult to …

We present an original model describing the transient flow boiling crisis of water at high
subcooling and atmospheric pressure. We hypothesize that in such conditions, the …
