Investigation of heat transfer in metal-foam tubes

Nowadays metallic foams attract increasing attention in making compact heat exchangers due to its advanced thermal properties. In this project, the performance of forced convection and flow boiling heat transfer in metal-foam tubes has been investigated experimentally and theoretically. Compared to...
