This publication lays the foundation for description of Multiscale Boiling Experiment, which was conducted within two measurement campaigns on International Space Station between 2019 and 2021. The experiment addresses fundamental questions about two-phase heat transfer during boiling processes. For this purpose, single or few subsequential bubbles are selectively ignited a heated substrate using short laser pulse. A detailed investigation phenomena is possible, as process temporally slowed...
We present the results of a study aimed at investigating effects electric fields on quasi-static bubble departure dynamics during pool boiling perfluorohexane (FC-72) in microgravity conditions. Analysis was performed through an alternative formulation momentum balance which contribution non-uniform stress distributions interface can be quantified high-speed video measurements without having to numerically solve laws electrostatics. Data used this were obtained scope Multiscale Boiling...
Boiling is one of the most effective heat transfer mechanisms. In spite a long time research, physical fundamentals are still not sufficiently understood. Pursuing objective to predict based on and geometrical properties, experimental numerical investigations conducted at institute authors. The focus presented research coalescence two single bubbles under varying pressure conditions. experiment thin stainless-steel foil used as Joule heater. experiments were performed in range 300–1000 mbar...

The formation of liquid microlayers during the dewetting a hot surface has significant effects on heat transfer in boiling and evaporation processes. Understanding criteria for such is crucial explaining characteristics, particular coefficient (HTC).

We conducted experiments as...
Abstract The Volume-of-Fluid (VOF) method is commonly used for numerical simulations of phase change phenomena, such as nucleate boiling or droplet evaporation. A key issue with the standard VOF averaging liquid and vapor properties in interface cells, which causes non-physical conjugate heat transfer a solid wall. Therefore, we aim at physical model between multiphase fluid. first measure higher quality splitting single temperature field fluid region into separate fields. second development...
