About this title

Synopsis

Set IV is a new addition to the previous Sets I, II and III. It contains 23 invited chapters from international specialists on the topics of numerical modeling of pulsating heat pipes and of slug flows with evaporation; Lattice-Boltzmann modeling of pool boiling; fundamentals of boiling in microchannels and microfin tubes, CO2 and nanofluids; testing and modeling of micro-two-phase cooling systems for electronics; and various special topics (flow separation in microfluidics, two-phase sensors, wetting of anisotropic surfaces, ultra-compact heat exchangers, etc.). The invited authors are leading university researchers and well-known engineers from leading corporate research laboratories (ABB, IBM, Nokia Bell Labs). Numerous "must read" chapters are also included here for the two-phase community. Set IV constitutes a "must have" engineering and research reference together with previous Sets I, II and III for thermal engineering researchers and practitioners.

Readership: Graduate students, researchers and professional in the fields of mechanical, refrigeration, chemical, nuclear and electronics engineering on the important topics of two-phase heat transfer and two-phase flow.

About the Author

John R Thome is Professor of Heat and Mass Transfer at the Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL), Switzerland since 1998, where he directs the two-phase flow and heat transfer research laboratory (LTCM) with 20 some post-docs and PhD students. His work focuses on visual investigations of the fundamental phenomena of microchannel two-phase flows (in channels as small as 85 microns), new experimental and image processing techniques for microscale two-phase flows, mechanistic two-phase flow pattern based heat transfer and pressure drop models for macroscale evaporating and condensing flows, plate and multiport tube heat exchangers, computerized flow control of two-phase microcooling systems, the development of multi-microchannel evaporators for electronics cooling with up to 1200 parallel microchannels, enhanced boiling and condensation, and the numerical modeling of two-phase phenomena. He received his PhD at Oxford University, England in 1978.
