By using the vapor-liquid phase change model of Gong-Cheng and Peng-Robinson equation of state, the effects of structural parameters, including metal foam thickness, porosity, column height and ratio of column width(W) to gap spacing(D) are investigated in details. The results show that hybrid structure performs better than pure columnar structure in pool boiling heat transfer. The hybrid structure accelerates bubble growth by fluid disturbance while metal skeletons prevent the bubble escaping. The optimum ratio of column width to gap spacing decreases with the increase of heat flux and HTC(heat transfer coefficient) can achieve an increase up to 25% when W/D change from 5/3 to 1/3. The increase of column height enhances heat transfer by expanding surface area and providing space for bubble motion. The metal foam thickness and porosity have a little influence on pool boiling heat transfer performance, but they have an important effect on bubble motion in the regime.展开更多

Comparing with the results of experiments of the square moon pool, a series of studies reveal that the water piston oscillation phenomenon is quite similar to that of the circular one. Two types of oscillation are exhibited under different incoming wave periods, i.e. self-excited oscillation and forced oscillation. The difference between the circular and square moon pool is that the attack angle makes greater influences on the square one. "Beating phenomenon" is also found in the square moon pool which is not mentioned of the circular one.展开更多
