Article Citation - WoS: 17Citation - Scopus: 18Electric Field Controlled Heat Transfer Through Silicon and Nano-Confined Water(Taylor & Francis, 2019) Yenigün, Onur; Barışık, MuratNanoscale heat transfer between two parallel silicon slabs filled with deionized water was studied under varying electric field in heat transfer direction. Two oppositely charged electrodes were embedded into the silicon walls to create a uniform electric field perpendicular to the surface, similar to electrowetting-on-dielectric technologies. Through the electrostatic interactions, (i) surface charge altered the silicon/water interface energy and (ii) electric field created orientation polarization of water by aligning dipoles to the direction of the electric field. We found that the first mechanism can manipulate the interface thermal resistance and the later can change the thermal conductivity of water. By increasing electric field, Kapitza length substantially decreased to 1/5 of its original value due to enhanced water layering, but also the water thermal conductivity lessened slightly since water dynamics were restricted; in this range of electric field, heat transfer was doubled. With a further increase of the electric field, electro-freezing (EF) developed as the aligned water dipoles formed a crystalline structure. During EF (0.53 V/nm), water thermal conductivity increased to 1.5 times of its thermodynamic value while Kapitza did not change; but once the EF is formed, both Kapitza and conductivity remained constant with increasing electric field. Overall, the heat transfer rate increased 2.25 times at 0.53 V/nm after which it remains constant with further increase of the electric field.Article Citation - WoS: 9Citation - Scopus: 12Void Fraction and Speed of Sound Measurement in Cavitating Flows by the Three Pressure Transducers (3pt) Technique(Elsevier, 2020) Esposito, Claudia; Yenigün, Onur; Gouriet, Jean-Baptiste; Steelant, Johan; Vetrano, Maria RosariaSpeed of sound and void fraction are two key parameters in the characterisation of two-phase flows. However, accurate measurements require either intrusive or complex techniques. This paper reports on the Three Pressure Transducers (3PT) technique, which derives the speed of sound by measuring pressure fluctuations and which, thanks to its robustness and simplicity, could be applicable in harsh conditions. Therefore, the aim of this paper is to study in detail the feasibility of this technique against its limits and constraints in a cavitating flow. First, a numerical assessment of the technique is proposed to determine both the optimal transducers configuration and the sampling frequency. Then, the implemented algorithm was applied to a two-phase air-water mixture with well-known properties. Finally, the 3PT algorithm was used to study the behaviour of a cavitating flow induced by an orifice. This last application highlighted the possibility to use this technique to characterize the bubble flow generated by an orifice without the use of any optical access and by using a very compact experimental arrangement. The results obtained are also qualitatively compared to the images of the flow simultaneously acquired by a high-speed camera.
