Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

The intensive development of modern technologies in industrial thermal power engineering, petrochemistry, microelectronics, aerospace engineering, communication systems, metallurgy, and mechanical engineering requires significant energy consumption. The results obtained so far show that the development of new-generation apparatuses, devices, and equipment is impossible without the development of fundamentally new strategies and technical solutions based on new fundamental knowledge of heat and mass transfer processes.

In this Special Issue, we invite you to submit materials on cutting-edge research and the latest advances in the field of heat and mass transfer in industrial and energy systems operating both with the use of traditional large volumes of coolant and with small volumes of liquids. We welcome experimental and theoretical studies, as well as review papers.

The novelty-designed adaptive heat exchanger (AHE) for heat dissipation from the hydraulic system to ambient air has been experimentally investigated. The heated hydraulic oil circulated in rubber hydraulic pipes as working fluid. The heat flow for AHE mounted in the hydraulic circuit was compared with the condition without the AHE. In addition, the contact surfaces of the AHE were coated with a copper-based thermal conductive paste for heat transfer enhancement research. The installation of the AHE in the hydraulic system caused an increase in heat flow by an average of 19.79% compared to the system without AHE, at an oil flow rate of 0.043 kg/s. The AHE with the copper-based thermal conductive paste achieved higher heat flow by an average of 24.93% and 20.49% compared to the circuit without AHE and with AHE, respectively. The installation of the AHE, and AHE with thermal conductive paste, into the hydraulic circuit caused an increase in differences of surface temperatures up to 8.1 °C and 8.3 °C compared to the hydraulic system without AHE. The hydraulic system with AHE achieved 1.3 times and 2.2 times higher the overall heat transfer coefficient compared to the AHE with thermal conductive paste and the system without AHE, respectively. The finned AHE is usable for additional cooling of working fluid (oil, coolant, fuel) in various machines and equipment without the necessity of interrupting the pipelines. Adaptability of the AHE allows it to be mounted on flexible hoses in the required location with the possibility of changing the number of heat exchange segments. Full article

In the framework of this work, the surface properties of Cu-SiC composite material were studied when spreading micro- and nanoliter liquids. The Cu-SiC samples with a SiC content of 5 to 20 wt.% were fabricated by spark plasma sintering at temperatures from 700 to 850 °C. The Cu-SiC surfaces were processed by two different methods: using abrasive materials and nanosecond laser radiation. Surface analysis was performed by scanning electron microscopy, profilometry, energy dispersive spectroscopy and Vickers methods. The surface properties (wetting and dynamic characteristics of spreading) were studied using a shadow optical technique when interacting the Cu-SiC surfaces with water (up to 10 μL). It was proved that the recorded deterioration of the wettability properties of Cu-SiC surfaces processed by abrasive materials with an increase in their sintering temperature and the reason for the spontaneous hydrophobization of the Cu-SiC composite materials modified by nanosecond laser radiation, are due to the adsorption of airborne hydrocarbon contaminants, similar to the known wetting inversion of metal surfaces. It was established that the wetting properties of materials prior to modification by laser radiation do not affect the intensity, duration of stages, and steady-state values of contact angles upon wetting inversion of Cu-SiC composite materials. It was also found that the processing of Cu-SiC surfaces by laser radiation makes it possible to change the dynamic characteristics of the liquid spreading (at a flow rate of 5 μL/min, the liquid front speed is more than three times, and the dynamic contact angles are in the range of 30°).
