Heat Transfer Deterioration by the Copper Oxide Layer on Horizontal Subcooled Flow Boiling
Water–copper is one of the most common combinations of working fluid and heating surface in high-performance cooling systems. Copper is usually selected for its high thermal conductivity and water for its high heat transfer coefficient, especially in the

Influence of a Flow Obstacle on Boiling Two-Phase Flow
In the view of the safety operation and the designing of boiling two-phase flow equipments, boiling two-phase flow characteristics, especially the critical heat flux is very important. In addition, the flow obstacle in a boiling channel, such as the spacer of boiling water reactor, influences the boiling heat transfer and flow characteristics.

Void Fraction Correlation for Boiling and Non-Boiling Vertical Two-Phase Flows in Tube [PDF]
Abstract Applicability of previously proposed Vold fraction correlation was studied on the boiling steam-water flows in tube. The correlation was found to be applicable to the data of Sekoguchi (d=13.55 mm) and Bartolomei (d=25mm), i.e. the value of parameter K in the correlation equals to unity. The average value of K for pipes of smaller diameter (d=
