Boiling heat transfer from inclined surfaces is examined and an analytical model of bubble growth and nucleate boiling is presented. The model predicts the average heat flux during nucleate boiling by considering alternating near-wall liquid and vapor periods. It expresses the heat flux in terms of the bubble departure diameter, frequency and duration of contact with the heating surface. Experiments were conducted over a wide range of upward and downward-facing surface orientations and the results were compared to model predictions. More active microlayer agitation and mixing along the surface as well as more frequent bubble sweeps along the heating surface provide the key reasons for more effective heat transfer with downward facing surfaces as compared to upward facing cases. Additional aspects of the role of surface inclination on boiling dynamics are quantified and discussed.

In the past three decades, fractal geometry and technique have received considerable attention due to its wide applications in sciences and technologies such as in physics, mathematics, geophysics, oil recovery, material science and engineering, flow and heat and mass transfer in porous media etc. The fractal geometry and technique may become particularly powerful when they are applied to deal with random and disordered media such as porous media, nanofluids, nucleate boiling heat transfer. In this paper, a summary of recent advances is presented in the areas of heat and mass transfer in fractal media by fractal geometry technique. The present overview includes a brief summary of the fractal geometry technique applied in the areas of heat and mass transfer; thermal conductivities of porous media and nanofluids; nucleate boiling heat transfer. A few comments are made with respect to the theoretical studies that should be made in the future.

The heat transfer coefficient at the bottom surface of a splat rapidly solidified on a cold substrate is self-consistently and quantitatively investigated. Provided that the boundary condition at the bottom surface of the splat is specified by introducing the obtained heat transfer coefficient, solutions of the splat can be conveniently obtained without solving the substrate. In this work, the solidification front in the splat is governed by nonequilibrium kinetics while the melting front in the substrate undergoes equilibrium phase change. By solving one-dimensional unsteady heat conduction equations and accounting for distinct properties between phases and splat and substrate, the results show that the time-dependent heat transfer coefficient or Biot number can be divided into five regimes: liquid splat-solid substrate, liquid splat-liquid substrate, nucleation of splat, solid splat-solid substrate, and solid splat-liquid substrate. The Biot number at the bottom surface of the splat during liquid splat cooling increases and nucleation time decreases with increasing contact Biot number, density ratio, and solid conductivity of the substrate, and decreasing specific heat ratio. Decreases in melting temperature and liquid conductivity of the substrate and increase in latent heat ratio further decrease the Biot number at the bottom surface of the splat after the substrate becomes molten. Time-dependent Biot number at the bottom surface of the splat is obtained from a scale analysis. [S0022-1481(00)01004-5]
