Heat Transfer Coefficient (HTC), Critical Heat Flux (CHF), nano coating, nanoparticle, wettabilityAbstract
In various engineering as well as non-engineering i.e. in our daily lives boiling phenomenon is using. Boiling heat transfer is a systematic and essential mechanism for transfer of thermal energy form one surface to the relatively lower temperature surface. The phenomenon of boiling heat transfer is being applied in many industrial fields to require for maximization of the critical heat flux. Objective of this present paper is to present the effect of surface coating on heat transfer coefficient and critical heat flux in pool and flow boiling phenomenon. Present paper includes summary of existing work on heat transfer enhancement techniques using nano coating. Effect of surface wettability and nanoparticle deposition has been discussed.
