Recent Developments in Flow Boiling and Two-Phase Flow in Small Channels and Microchannels
Microscale two-phase flow is at present one of the hottest topics of heat transfer research, both in academia and in the industry. The miniaturization of two-phase flow systems, which has led to numerous experimental and theoretical challenges not yet completely resolved, is primarily related to the dissipation of high heat duties typical of compact systems such as CPU (central processing unit) chips, electronic devices, micro chemical reactors, and micro fuel cell combustors.
