Figure 6. Boiling curves and heat transfer coefficient for five surfaces.

Figure 6

(a) Heat flux versus wall superheat for a bare surface, homogeneous ZnO surface, polymer dots, and two heterogeneous surfaces with 150–500 μm and 75–500 μm configurations. (b) Corresponding heat transfer coefficient of tested boiling surfaces as a function of superheat. All enhanced surfaces show improved heat transfer at low superheat compared to the bare surface.
