Experimental and theoretical investigations of the maximum heat transfer rate in liquid-vapour evaporative cooling syste

该博士项目旨在探索液体-蒸汽蒸发冷却技术中的最大传热速率，这将使能源系统的开发具有更高的能量和功率密度。该研究将包括：现有的最先进的液-汽蒸发冷却技术和相关的物理模型的系统性审查;在典型的液-汽蒸发冷却系统的热阻和流体动力学不稳定性的理论分析;在液-汽蒸发过程中的传热速率和流体动力学不稳定性的实验量化。

This PhD project aims to explore the maximum heat transfer rate in the liquid-vapour evaporative cooling technologies which would enable the development of energy systems with higher energy and power densities. The research will include:Systematic review of the existing state-of-art liquid-vapour evaporative cooling technologies and relevant physical models;Theoretical analysis of the thermal resistances and hydrodynamic instabilities in typical liquid-vapour evaporative cooling systems;Experimental quantifications of the heat transfer rates and hydrodynamic instabilities during the liquid-vapour evaporation process.
