An Experimental Investigation of Electrowetting Modulated Nucleate Boiling
… we report a novel application of EW in enhancing nucleate boiling heat transfer. The working approach capitalizes on the complimentary roles of hydrophobicity and hydrophilicity in the fundamental processes of nucleate boiling, and takes advantage of the ability of EW to dynamically alter the …

Experimental design for study of nucleate boiling in porous structures
The superheat required to initiate nucleate boiling inside porous wicks is not well understood in practice. This thesis reports the design of an experimental setup for investigating the onset of vapor nucleation in sintered porous structures. Pressure sensing was evaluated as an effective means of …

The effect of a knurled heat transfer surface upon pool nucleate boiling of normal pentane
<p>"The effect of knurling a nucleate boiling heat transfer surface was studied. The knurling utilized produced regular, four-sided, adjacent pyramids with an apex angle of 90 degrees. Four knurling densities were used ranging from 416 to 2591 pyramids per square inch. The transfer surface was …
