  • Enhanced flow boiling heat transfer in microchannels with structured surfaces
    Patent number: 10867887
    Abstract: A two-phase microchannel heat sink can be a fluid channel including a bottom wall including a superhydrophilic surface with microstructures and a side wall including a surface that is hydrophobic relative to the superhydrophilic surface of the bottom wall. When heat flux is applied to the fluid channel, a liquid film on the bottom wall is maintained and nucleation of boiling occurs only on the side wall.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: July 28, 2015
    Date of Patent: December 15, 2020
    Assignee: MASSACHUSETTS INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY
