| Abstract | Flow boiling and condensation are crucial to the efficient and safe operation of electronics cooling, power generation, refrigeration, water purification, chemical processing, and among others. Two-phase flows are also subject to a wide range of instabilities at the liquid-vapor interface. These instabilities can lead to significant thermal performance degradation, reducing heat transfer coefficient, increasing pressure drop, and causing overheating. To prevent process disruptions or thermal per |
