Single-phase convective heat transfer of nanofluids has been studied extensively, and different degrees of enhancement were observed over the base fluids, whereas there is still debate on the improvement in overall thermal performance when both heat transfer and hydrodynamic characteristics are considered. Meanwhile, very few studies have been devoted to investigating two-phase heat transfer of nanofluids, and it remains inconclusive whether the same pessimistic outlook should be expected. In this work, an experimental study of forced convective flow boiling and two-phase flow was conducted for Al2O3–water nanofluids through a minichannel. General flow boiling heat transfer characteristics were measured, and the effects of nanofluids on the onset of nucleate boiling (ONB) were studied. Two-phase flow instabilities were also explored with an emphasis on the transition boundaries of onset of flow instabilities (OFI). It was found that the presence of nanoparticles delays ONB and suppresses OFI, and the extent is correlated to the nanoparticle volume concentration. These effects were attributed to the changes in available nucleation sites and surface wettability as well as thinning of thermal boundary layers in nanofluid flow. Additionally, it was observed that the pressure-drop type flow instability prevails in two-phase flow of nanofluids, but with reduced amplitude in pressure, temperature, and mass flux oscillations.

Heat transfer measurements were performed on six rib-type roughened tube annuli (4.67–9.01 mm Dh, 6–16 ribs, rib pitch 19.7–63.0 mm, rib height 4 ram, rib width 15 mm, rib angle 20–60 deg) with two phases of refrigerant R-114 under evaporating conditions. Based on the same heat transfer area of the test section, the effects of heat flux, quality, and rib spacing on flow boiling heat transfer coefficient were presented and discussed. Correlations of two-phase enhancement factor F and suppression factor S were developed by modifications and extensions of Chen’s model for the present geometric configurations.
