Flow boiling heat transfer widely utilized in numerous industrial applications such as boiler tubes, evaporators and cooling of reactors in a nuclear power plant. Nanofluids are a new category of thermal fluids, made by dispersing a nanometer solid particle which is usually less than 100 nm into conventional liquids such as water, oil engine and ethylene glycol with the intent to enhance the thermal properties of the base fluids. This work reviews the recent experimental studies focusing on the flow boiling heat transfer using nanofluids. The latest results associated with this subject are presented and outlined to account the influence of several parameters, which are related to operating conditions and nanoparticles morphology on the heat transfer coefficient and the critical heat flux. Besides, the effects of nanoparticles on other related sub-phenomenon of the flow boiling by using nanofluids were discussed. Moreover, the latest review papers of the related topic were presented and briefly discussed. Finally, suggestions for future research activities related to this field were also concisely listed.
