Abstract
The novel tin-doped copper oxide capillary-nano-porous surfaces were created using the easy and affordable sol-gel method. The pool's boiling incipience wall superheat on a capillary-nano-porous surface was lower than a non-coating surface. Bubble flow visualization investigation demonstrates that the coating's shape can significantly affect the processes involved in improving heat transmission. An investigation of the nano-porous surface's long-term stability was conducted using water. Repeated cycles of studies on created nano-porous surfaces revealed a little divergence in wall superheat and surface shape. The present study's tin-doped copper oxide coated surface (Sn-CuO-600) has a higher CHF (critical heat flux) and HTC (heat transfer coefficient). Heat transmission by boiling rises when a substantial quantity of bubbles are rapidly evacuated from the heating exterior. It is observed that a greater quantity of tiny, spherical bubbles are continually growing on the superhydrophilic Sn-CuO-600 surface. Compared to the plain copper surface, the Sn-CuO-600 surface experiences a significant reduction in bubble departure times. The rate of bubble formation is increased by superhydrophilic surfaces, which also reduce bubble dimensions and release times. Consequently, the Sn-CuO-600 surfaces exhibit superior heat transfer ability throughout boiling.
