  • CRITICAL HEAT FLUX (CHF) ENHANCING SURFACE TREATMENT
    Publication number: 20210057114
    Abstract: Engineered surfaces, such as surfaces having nano- and/or micro-scale features, may provide an enhanced flow boiling Critical Heat Flux (CHF) at ambient or higher pressures, which may enhance cooling. Enhancing flow boiling CHF may be desirable for nuclear reactors, where heat is generated by a heater such as a nuclear reactor core. Enhanced flow boiling CHF may provide larger safety margins and/or better economics of nuclear reactors, for example, because reactor power rating may be increased as cooling is enhanced.
