摘要
The bubble growth and boiling heat transfer on a microfinned surface are studied numerically by solving the conservation equations of mass, momentum and energy. The bubble shape is tracked by a sharp-interface level-set method, which is modified to include the effect of phase change and to treat the contact angle and microlayer heat flux on an immersed solid surface. The present computation demonstrates that the microfinned surface enhances boiling heat transfer significantly compared to a plain surface. The effects of fin spacing and height on the bubble growth and heat transfer are investigated to find the optimal conditions for boiling enhancement. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
