Abstract

Spray cooling is a technology of increasing interest for electronic cooling and other high heat flux applications. In this study, heat transfer coefficients (HTCs) and critical heat fluxes (CHFs) were measured on a smooth square flat copper heater of 9.53×9.53 mm at 36℃ in a pool, with a smooth flat surface, and 26 fpi. Low-fin surfaces were used to see the change in HTCs and CHFs according to the surface characteristics, and FC-72 was used as the working fluid. FC-72 fluid had a significant influence on the heat transfer characteristics of the spray over the cooling surface. HTCs were taken from 10 kW/㎡ to critical heat flux, for all surfaces. Test results with Low-fin showed that the CHFs of all the enhanced surface were greatly improved. It can be said that the surface form affects the heat transfer coefficient and critical heat flux.
