Municchi, F., Markides, C. N., Matar, O. K., & Magnini, M. (2024). Computational study of bubble, thin-film dynamics and heat transfer during flow boiling in non-circular microchannels. Applied Thermal Engineering, 238, Article 122039. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.applthermaleng.2023.122039

Flow boiling in multi-microchannel evaporators is one of the most efficient thermal management solutions for high-power-density applications. However, there is still a lack of understanding of the governing two-phase heat and mass transfer processes...

Dynamics of long bubbles propagating through cylindrical micro-pin fin arrays (2023)
Journal Article
El Mellas, I., Municchi, F., Icardi, M., & Magnini, M. (2023). Dynamics of long bubbles propagating through cylindrical micro-pin fin arrays. International Journal of Multiphase Flow, 163, 104443. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ijmultiphaseflow.2023.104443

The dynamics of two-phase flows confined within complex and non-straight geometries is of interest for a variety of applications such as micro-pin fin evaporators and flow in unsaturated porous media. Despite the propagation of bubbles in straight ch... Read More about Dynamics of long bubbles propagating through cylindrical micro-pin fin arrays.
