Heat transfer or flow mode transition was observed when the heating rate or wall temperature was increased. This transition was found to be suggestively induced by the variation in liquid thermophysical properties due to the significant rise of liquid temperature in the microstructures. The influence of such parameters as liquid velocity, subcooling, property variation, and microchannel geometric configuration on the heat transfer behavior, cooling performance and the heat transfer and liquid flow mode transition were also investigated. The experiments indicated that both slngle-phase forced convection and flow boiling characteristics were quite different from those in normal-sized tubes and the heat transfer was obviously intensified.展开更多
