Introduction • Drop impacts on dry surface exhibit more complicated flow patterns than those on the wetted surfaces Six possible outcomes of drop impacts on a dry surface • Drop impact on dry surface is a key element of a wide variety of phenomena encountered in many technical applications, including spray printing, rapid spray cooling of hot surface, ice accumulation on power lines and aircrafts 7/29/2010 UIC-REU
Applications • Spray cooling can be used to transfer large amounts of energy through the latent heat of evaporation, heat transfer rate much higher than pool boiling since the drop can be removed heat from surface more easily. • Water Spray Cooling: extremely high heat transfer (L= 2260J/g) cooling microelectronic chips , radiological elements and server room. • Semiconducting diamond devices works up to temperatures of 500 °C, and silicon devices fail at around 150 °C Coating that can increase the interface Use minimum amount of water to transfer maximum heat from device in shorter time. 7/29/2010 UIC-REU
Experiment- Nanofiber Mat Coating • Electrospinning is a process that produces continuous polymer fibers through the action of an external electric field imposed on a polymer solution. • Primary characteristic of nanofibers is the high ratio of surface area to mass . • Then polymer fiber distributed on the grounded plate • PAN (Poly-acrylonitrile) is a resinous, fibrous, and rubbery organic polymer. 7/29/2010 UIC-REU

Conclusion • Nanofiber mat coating: Silver > Copper > Nickel > PAN • Based on cost and heat flux rate: Copper nanofiber mat is the best coating. • Copper nanofiber mat: high thermal conductivity high interface between water and hot surface • Copper nanofiber coating may lead to a breakthrough in the development of a new generation of spray cooling process. 7/29/2010 UIC-REU
