| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, natural-convection two-phase flows and two-phase flows in microchannels have been investigated experimentally in order to develop an approach for controlling near-wall bubble behavior using functional plates. For the natural-convection two-phase flows, in the range of the width of hydrophobic region, WH, from 0 to 2 mm, the heat transfer coefficient increases by about 30% using the functional plate at WH=2 mm. This results mainly from an increase in the bubble concentration near the heated wall because of temporal attachment of bubbles at hydrophobic regions. For the two-phase flows in microchannels, in the range of the liquid flow rate from 100 to 400 micro l/min, bubbles can be intermittently generated from air-filled pockets only using air permeability of PDMS. In addition, the bubble generation frequency increases monotonically as the liquid flow rate increases.
