Encyclopedia Of Two-phase Heat Transfer And Flow I: Fundamentals And Methods (A 4-volume Set) (ePub)

The aim of the two–set series is to present a very detailed and up–to–date reference for researchers and practicing engineers in the fields of mechanical, refrigeration, chemical, nuclear and electronics engineering on the important topic of two-phase heat transfer and two-phase flow. The scope of the first set of 4 volumes presents the fundamentals of the two-phase flows and heat transfer mechanisms, and describes in detail the most important prediction methods, while the scope of the second set of 4 volumes presents numerous special topics and numerous applications, also including numerical simulation methods.Practicing engineers will find extensive coverage to applications involving: multi-microchannel evaporator cold plates for electronics cooling, boiling on enhanced tubes and tube bundles, flow pattern based methods for predicting boiling and condensation inside horizontal tubes, pressure drop methods for singularies (U-bends and contractions), boiling in multiport tubes, and boiling and condensation in plate heat exchangers. All of these chapters include the latest methods for predicting not only local heat transfer coefficients but also pressure drops.Professors and students will find this "Encylopedia of Two-Phase Heat Transfer and Flow" particularly exciting, as it contains authored books and thorough state-of-the-art reviews on many basic and special topics, such as numerical modeling of two-phase heat transer and adiabatic bubbly and slug flows, the unified annular flow boiling model, flow pattern maps, condensation and boiling theories, new emerging topics, etc.Contents:Volume 1: Modeling of Gas Liquid Flow in Pipes (Yehuda Taitel and Dvora Barnea):IntroductionBasic Definitions of Two Phase Flow ParametersSimplified MethodsHydrodynamic Models Based on Flow PatternsFlow Pattern TransitionThe Two Fluid ModelThe Drift Flux ModelFlow in Parallel PipesFlooding and Flow ReversalVolume 2: Condensation Heat Transfer (Srinivas Garimella and Brian M Fronk):Introduction to Condensation Heat TransferDirect-Contact CondensationDropwise CondensationExternal Film CondensationInternal Flow CondensationMini- and Microchannel CondensationCondensation of Mixtures with Condensable and Non-Condensable ConstituentsEnhancement of Condensation Heat TransferVolume 3: Flow Boiling in Macro and Microchannels (John R Thome and Andrea Cioncolini):Introduction to Two-Phase Flow and Boiling in ChannelsTwo-Phase Flow Pattern Maps for MacrochannelsTwo-Phase Flow Pattern Maps for MicrochannelsVoid FractionEntrained Liquid Fraction in Annular Two-Phase FlowTwo-Phase Pressure DropForced Convective BoilingCritical Heat Flux in Convective BoilingUnified Modeling Suite for Annular FlowVolume 4: Special Topics in Pool and Flow Boiling (ME Poniewski, S Hożejowska, R Kaniowski, B Maciejewska, R Pastuszko, M Piasecka and TM Wójcik):IntroductionEnhanced Pool Boiling Heat Transfer on Novel Combined Micro-Structured SurfacesHysteresis Phenomena in Pool Boiling on Micro-Structured SurfacesFlow Boiling in MinichannelsHeat Transfer and Pressure Drop in Minichanels with a Microstructured Surface and Various Spatial OrientationsNumerical Analysis of Boiling Two-Phase Flow in Mini- and Microchannels Readership: Graduate students, researchers and professional in the fields of mechanical, refrigeration, chemical, nuclear and electronics engineering on the important topics of two-phase heat transfer and two-phase flow.Key Features:The twin-set offers an all-in-one reference for two-phase heat transfer and flowsThe twin-set provides a comprehensive treatment of the subject with contributions from 55 top researchers and expertsThe twin-set is relevant to researchers and engineers working on all types of heat transfer and cooling problems in a myriad of industriesThe twin-set covers not only conventionalsized cooling systems but also include a detailed focus on two-phase heat transfer and flow in microchannels, microevaporators, etc.
