A critical review of the available information about heat transfer between a packed bed with cocurrent downflow of gas and liquid and an external medium is undertaken. Several aspects as experimental set-ups and methods ...

Nanofluid pool boiling can modify the morphology of the heating surface and the physical properties of the base fluids, interfering directly on the vapor bubbles dynamics and on the heat transfer mechanisms. This paper ...

The concept of entransy was recently proposed in terms of the analogy to the electric energy stored in a capacitor. The entransy of a system describes its heat transfer ability, as the exergy of a system quantifies its ...

Despite its importance for designing evaporators and condensers, a review of the literature shows that heat transfer data during phase change of carbon dioxide is very limited, mainly for microchannel flows. In order to ...
