P16371: Controlled Oscillating Meniscus Test Fixture Charles Krouse, Joseph Baldwin, Robert Walkowiak, and Alyssa Recinella 1
Team Roles ● Charles Krouse: Team Lead ● Robert Walkowiak: Master Builder ● Alyssa Recinella: Communications ● Joseph Baldwin: Lead Engineer 2
Background ● Boiling is one of the most powerful forms of heat transfer available to us, and bubble nucleation is the vehicle of that heat transfer. Unfortunately boiling systems are incredibly chaotics and as a result bubble nucleation and boiling at high heat fluxes are not well understood. ● A system has been proposed that models bubble nucleation under these conditions, several subsystems of this set up are currently in development. ● The purpose of this project is to take what was completed for these subsystems over the summer and advance them towards completion. 3
