Practical design aspects of electrohydrodynamic heat transfer enhancement in evaporators.

Author(s) : COOPER P.

Summary

The paper outlines practical issues involved in the design of electrohydrodynamic-enhanced evaporators and forms part of the transfer of fundamental electrohydrodynamic research findings to the wider heat transfer engineering community. The influence of electrode and heat transfer surface geometries on the electric field distribution at the heat transfer surface is considered. Recent research on electrohydrodynamic enhancement of boiling is reviewed, and the electrohydrodynamic mechanisms involved are explained in terms of the electrical body forces acting on the working fluids.
