In this work, a numerical simulation has been conducted to investigate the effect of superbiphilic surface on boiling using the volume of fluid (VOF) method. The boiling curve has been used to study the heat transfer efficiency and boiling dynamics which gain more physical insights into the underlying mechanisms. By adjusting the mixed hydrophilic and hydrophobic surface, two types of surface prpoerties have been investigated in this work: the superhydrophilic and superhydrophobic networks. The superhydrophilic network is found to achieve a larger critical heat flux and delay the occurrence of film boiling, while the superhydrophobic network can reach the critical heat flux at a comparatively lower superheat. The superbiphilic surface can enhance the heat transfer efficiency, and the critical heat flux obtained is 55% greater than the hydrophilic/hydrophobic surface with a uniform contact angle. For the first time, the effect of superbiphilic contact angle on the complete boiling curve is shown. The numerical predictions demonstrate good agreement with prior experimental and theoretical studies. This work provides a better understanding of contact angle effect in boiling dynamics, and it serves a good indicator for designing a smarter heat exchanger which might greatly benefit the whole energy industry.

体积法对超双亲表面沸腾曲线的数值研究

在这项工作中,已经进行了数值模拟,以使用流体体积(VOF)方法研究超双亲表面对沸腾的影响。沸腾曲线已用于研究传热效率和沸腾动力学,从而获得了更多的物理机理。通过调节混合的亲水和疏水表面,在这项工作中研究了两种类型的表面特性:超亲水和超疏水网络。发现超亲水网络可实现更大的临界热通量并延迟薄膜沸腾的发生,而超疏水网络可在相对较低的过热下达到临界热通量。超双亲表面可提高传热效率,获得的临界热通量为55大于亲水/疏水表面且具有均匀的接触角。首次显示了超双亲接触角对完整沸腾曲线的影响。数值预测表明与先前的实验和理论研究吻合良好。这项工作可以更好地了解沸腾动力学中的接触角效应,并且为设计更智能的热交换器提供了很好的指示,这可能会极大地有利于整个能源行业。
