Description The project started six months ago. The main key findings are:

-The upgrade of the pool boiling rig and its instrumentation.
- the buildings of the first substrates and boiling test section with artificial cavities.
-The modeling is progressing with coordination with partners at Imperial College.
-
-Significant data on the effect of wettability and cavities influence on bubbles nucleation, growth and interactions are obtained.
-We anticipate some significant outputs from these data.
Exploitation Route This award is still ongoing and we anticipate to have more of the above in the future.
Sectors Aerospace, Defence and Marine,Chemicals,Electronics

 
Description The outcomes have been used by many researchers around the world and cited the work.

PI Contribution The collaboration started in 2015 when Profesor K. Sefiane was awarded a Progress100 grant by Kyushu University to support collaboration between the two Universities. The initial grant was for 18 months. Professor Sefiane has been succesful in renewing this grant in 2018 for another 3 years.#The funding provided support to appoint a research assistant at Kyushu University and pay for travel expenses between Edinburgh and Kyushu for staff from the two groups.
Collaborator Contribution Two research awards: 2015-2016 2018-2021 The total amounts of these two awards was about 100,000 £.
