Summary

There existed an optimum concentration of the small, more volatile components at which the flow boiling heat transfer reached a maximum value. These characteristics were found to be affected by both liquid flow velocity and the amount of subcooling. The heat transfer coefficient at the onset of flow boiling and in the partial nucleate boiling region was greatly influenced by liquid concentration, microchannel and plate configuration, flow velocity and amount of subcooling. However, microchannel size, flow velocity, subcooling of the mixture, and liquid concentration had no significant effect on the heat transfer coefficient in the fully nucleate boiling regime.
