* Third edition of a well-known and well established text both in industry and for teaching * Fully up-to-date and includes extra problems This book is an aid to heat exchanger design written primarily for design and development engineers in the chemical process, power generation, and refrigeration industries. It provides a comprehensive reference on two-phase flows, boiling, and condensation. The text covers all the latest advances like flows over tube bundles and two-phase heat transfer regarding refrigerants and petrochemicals. Another feature of this third edition is many new problems at chapter ends to enhance its use as a teaching text for graduate and post-graduate courses on two-phase flow and heat transfer. - ;This book is written for practising engineers as a comprehensive reference on two-phase flows, boiling, and condensation. It deals with methods for estimating two-phase flow pressure drops and heat transfer rates. It is a well-known reference book in its third edition and is also used as a text for advanced university courses. Both authors write from practical experience as both are professional engineers. -

Boiling: Research and Advances presents the latest developments and improvements in the technologies, instrumentation, and equipment surrounding boiling. Presented by the Japan Society of Mechanical Engineers, the book takes a holistic approach, first providing principles, and then numerous practical applications that consider size scales. Through six chapters, the book covers contributed sections from knowledgeable specialists on various topics, ranging from outlining boiling phenomena and heat transfer characteristics, to the numerical simulation of liquid-gas two phase flow. It summarizes, in a single volume, the state-of-the-art in boiling heat transfer and provides a valuable resource for thermal engineers and practitioners working in the thermal sciences and thermal engineering. Explores the most recent advancements in boiling research and technology from the last twenty years Provides section content written by contributing experts in their respective research areas Shares research being conducted and advancements being made on boiling and heat transfer in Japan, one of the major research hubs in this field

Heat transfer phenomena are an important aspect of engineering in the power and process industries. `... provides a useful introduction to these very real problems in industrial heat transfer.' Contemporary Physics.

This account of the ancient healing dances practiced by the Kung people of southern Africa's Kalahari Desert includes vivid eyewitness descriptions of night-long healing dances and interviews with Kung healers.

Due to the peculiar way of evolution of boiling heat transfer research, a model "theater of director" (MTD), pumping effect of growing bubble (PEGB) and MTD-based universal correlation (UC) remain beyond the attention of researchers for more than half a century. In parallel, there are periodic fundamental events, demonstrating the irrationality of such indifference. Since the 1980s, not having found a way to enhance boiling heat transfer, other than that uncovered by the MTD-UC, high-performance boiling surfaces are being developed by artificially increasing effective radius (ER) of nucleation centers (bypassing the reference to the relevant theoretical basis). In 2009, an independent review declares transient conduction and microconvection as the dominant boiling heat transfer mechanism, not knowing that this is just the PEGB. In 2014-2017, the real versatility and accuracy of the UC is confirmed by independent studies, which involve extensive databases on the pool and flow boiling (with some interpretation problems). Assessing the current status of the study, the chapter emphasizes the complete fiasco of traditionally adopted approaches, models and theories, led to the dominance of purely empirical relationships written in a dimensionless form. Heat transfer research community is invited to gain will and rid of the heavy burden of the past.

The tabulated local steam volume fraction data from an investigation of natural and forced-circulation boiling systems are presented. The experimental equipment is described and the correlation of the experimental data is briefly discussed.

“Micro Transport Phenomena During Boiling” reviews the new achievements and contributions in recent investigations at microscale. The content mainly includes (i) fundamentals for conducting investigations of micro boiling, (ii) microscale boiling and transport phenomena, (iii) boiling characteristics at microscale, (iv) some important applications of micro boiling transport phenomena. This book is intended for researchers and engineers in the field of micro energy systems, electronic cooling, and thermal management in various compact devices/systems at high heat removal and/or heat dissipation. Dr. Xiaofeng Peng, who had passed away on Sep. 10, 2009, was a professor at the Department of Thermal Engineering, Tsinghua University, China.
