Comparison of nanofluid wetting characteristics in untreated and superhydrophilic microgrooved heat pipes
The thermal performance of the microgrooved heat pipes is mainly restricted by the wick capillary limit. The construction of micro-nano structures and using nanofluids are effective ways to improve the microgroove wetting characteristic and heat transfer ability. Based on the accommodation theory, a...
