DOI: 10.1080/01457632.2017.1369845
Abstract: ABSTRACT The enhancement of pool boiling heat transfer in FC-72 on a novel mixed-wettability surface was experimentally investigated. On the mixed-wettability surface, the micro-pin-finned area and the smooth area were distributed in the form of… read more here.
