Systems and Methods of Using Phase Change Material in Power Plants
PAGE TITLEOverviewPAGE SUMMARY Cooling systems and methods for cooling in a power plant using a phase change material. In one embodiment, a phase change material container includes at least one phase change material which may be in the form of a slurry; and at least one conduit for transporting the fluid through the phase change material when located...

Bi-Conductive Surfaces for Boiling Enhancement
PAGE TITLEOverviewPAGE SUMMARY We report the counterintuitive mechanism of increasing boiling heat transfer by incorporating low-conductivity materials at the interface between the surface and fluid. By embedding an array of non-conductive lines into a high-conductivity substrate, in-plane variations in the local surface temperature are created. During...
