“…The reduced temperature and the reduced density are defined as T r = T /T cr and ρ r = ρ/ρ cr , respectively, where the critical temperature and the critical density for the Carnahan-Starling EOS are equal to T cr = 0.09432 and ρ cr = 0.11911, respectively. To improve the accuracy of a single-component multiphase model, we use the following expression, the so-called β scheme, for interparticle interaction force [45,46]:…”

“…It is therefore currently not possible to simulate boiling and two-phase flow directly. However, by making a number of appropriate approximations it is possible to undertake high fidelity simulation of boiling two-phase flow using the so called Direct Numerical Simulation (DNS) method [16][17] and the lattice Boltzmann (LB) method [18][19]. However, both methods are computationally excessive and applying them to boiling two-phase flow for real surfaces is currently impossible.…”

The evaporative cooling system concepts proposed over the past century for engine thermal management in automotive applications are examined and critically reviewed. The purposes of this review are to establish the evident system shortcomings and to identify the remaining research questions that need to be addressed to enable this important technology to be adopted by vehicle manufacturers. Initially, the benefits of the evaporative cooling systems are restated in terms of the improved engine efficiency, the reduced carbon dioxide emissions and the improved fuel economy. This is followed by a historical coverage of the proposed concepts dating back to 1918. Possible evaporative cooling concepts are then classified into four distinct classes and critically reviewed. This culminates in an assessment of the available evidence to establish the reasons why no system has yet been approved for serial production commercially. Then, by systematic examination of the critical areas in evaporative cooling systems for application to automotive engine cooling, the remaining research challenges are identified

Due to significant improvement of thermal performance and other properties of nanofluids, this group of liquids is in high demand. According to the literature, the effect of nanoparticles on boiling heat transfer enhancement or degradation is not the same among different investigations. In the present article, the pseudo-potential multiphase lattice Boltzmann method is used to simulate nucleate pool boiling with two different fluids: a pure liquid and a nanofluid. The current results indicate that the contact angle is the same for both the fluid and nanofluid when the vapor bubble detachment occurs. Also, bubble departure diameter is greater in the base liquid while bubble release frequency is higher in the nanofluid. In brief, the present results demonstrate that using a nanofluid instead of its base fluid will increase the boiling heat transfer coefficient.
