A study on Stabilized Colloidal Fullerene (C-60) Nanoparticles for Pool Boiling Heat Transfer Applications

ABSTRACT We report the first Critical Heat Flux (CHF) experiment in pool boiling conditions using Fullerene (C60) nanofluids. Fullerene (C-60) nanofluids (0.0001, 0.001, and 0.01 vol.%) were prepared for experiments. We observe that maximum CHF enhancement up to ~108% was … Continue reading

An Overview Enhancement of Critical Heat Flux at Pool Boiling and Flow Boiling condition using nanofluids

ABSTRACT The most important thermal-hydraulic parameter in heat transfer system design and safety analysis is Critical Heat Flux (CHF). Many research have been conducted to investigate CHF enhancement technique such as by surface roughening, surface coating, by adding soluble addictive, … Continue reading
