摘要:
Enhancing condensation heat transfer performance in applications including power generation, thermal management of high-performance electronics, water purification, distillation, natural gas processing, and air conditioning can be achieved with heat transfer devices. Condensation heat transfer can be enhanced via a hierarchical structure attached on a condenser surface. This novel hierarchical structure is composed of a thin, highly permeable, thermally conductive porous wick and a highly porous, robust, intrinsically hydrophobic membrane bonded or attached on top of the wick.

Textured surface for increasing Leidenfrost temperature. The texture comprises of surface features over multiple length scales—from micro to nanoscale—wherein the features at each length scale have a size, aspect ratio, and spacing selected to increase the Leidenfrost temperature. The structure includes an array of microscale structures disposed on the surface, the structure having size, aspect ratio and spacing selected to increase Leidenfrost temperature. The microscale structures may also include nanoscale structures on their surface to create a hierarchical structure. The structures result in an increased Leidenfrost temperature.

A method for temporal registration of a first sequence of images and a second sequence of second images is described. The method comprises the following steps for: a) comparing the first parts of signatures of first images with corresponding parts of signatures of second images, b) temporally registering each first image with one of the second images according to the result of the comparison, c) calculating for each first image a value of quality representative of the quality of its registration, d) defining, for each first image for which the quality value is less than a threshold, a first sub-sequence from the first sequence and a second sub-sequence from the second sequence, e) comparing, for each first sub-sequence, second parts of signatures of first images of the first sub-sequence with corresponding parts of signatures of second images of the second corresponding sub-sequence, and b) temporally registering each first image of the first sub-sequence with one of the second images of the second sub-sequence according to the result of the comparison.

A method for making heated plane of a cooler to obtain better flatness and roughness includes a grinder with a grinding plate and a fixture. Then, the cooler is arranged onto the fixture. Next, the abrasive is injected into the gap between the grinding plate and the heated plane, making the fixture press and clamp the cooler in a way, such that the heated plane of the cooler contacts the abrasive closely. Finally, the grinding plate is rotated to make at least one grinding process to the heated plane, making the heated plane obtain a surface with better roughness and flatness, further enhancing the contact tightness between the heated plane and a heating element, and therefore promoting the thermally conductive efficiency between the cooler and the heating element.
