Falling film boiling and pool boiling on plain circular tubes : influence of surface roughness, surface material and saturation temperature on heat transfer and dryout

Bock, Bradley D.; Meyer, Josua P.; Thome, John R. (Elsevier, 2019-12)

Falling film evaporators in the refrigeration industry offer a number of advantages over their flooded counterparts such as improved heat transfer and lower refrigerant charge. Existing literature has not characterised the ...
Falling film boiling of refrigerants over nanostructured and roughened tubes : heat transfer, dryout and critical heat flux

Bock, Bradley D.; Bucci, Matteo; Markides, Christos N.; Thome, John R.; Meyer, Josua P. (Elsevier, 2020-12)

Falling film evaporators offer an attractive alternative to flooded evaporators as the lower fluid charge reduces the impact of leaks to the environment and associated safety concerns. A study was conducted of saturated ...
Heat transfer of uncoated and nanostructure coated commercially micro-enhanced refrigeration tubes under pool boiling conditions

Dickson, Dian; Bock, Bradley D.; Thome, John R. (Elsevier, 2024-01)

The heat transfer performance of commercially produced micro-enhanced tubes with and without a nanocoating was investigated under pool boiling of saturated refrigerant. These multiscale enhancements were on the outside of ...
Multiscale enhancement of refrigerant falling film boiling by combining commercially enhanced tubes with nanostructures

Bock, Bradley D.; Dickson, Dian; Thome, John R. (Elsevier, 2024-01)

Multiscale surface structures offer the opportunity to combine the heat transfer enhancement provided by microscale structures with the dryout benefits provided by some nanostructures, which is particularly attractive for ...
Pool boiling of refrigerants over nanostructured and roughened tubes

Bock, Bradley D.; Bucci, Matteo; Markides, Christos N.; Thome, John R.; Meyer, Josua P. (Elsevier, 2020-12)

This study investigated the heat transfer performance of three nanostructured surfaces and two plain surfaces: one roughened and one polished during the saturated pool boiling of refrigerants R-134a at 5 and 25 °C and ...
