A compact packaging module for direct liquid cooling of roomtemperature quantum cascade lasers is implemented. The light was coupled out of the hermetically sealed package through a mid-infrared fibre epoxy-bonded to the laser. The threshold current reduces by 10%, compared to convectional substrate-side cooled lasers when using low boiling temperature (boiling point (b.p.)1⁄4 34 C) 3M HFE7000 ...

Dioxane and water form a positive homoazeotrope which has an azeotropic decrease in temperature sufficiently large to effect the complete r emoval, by fractional distillation through an efficient column, of water present as an impurity. The boiling-point-composition diagram, including the composition of the vapor in equilibrium with the boiling liquid, was determined. The normal boiling point o...

Cooling technology becomes more important because of the increase in heat generation density of semiconductor chips. Boiling and two-phase flow is expected as one of the most effective methods to cool the electronic devices because of its superior heat transfer characteristics. Because the boiling heat transfer depends on the selection of coolant, the development of liquid mixtures and their co...

The connectivity index chi can be regarded as the sum of bond contributions. In this article, boiling point (bp)-oriented contributions for each kind of bond are obtained by decomposing the connectivity indices into ten connectivity character bases and then doing a linear regression between bps and the bases. From the comparison of bp-oriented contributions with the contributions assigned by ch...

Flow boiling in microchannels and minichannels is being investigated for its potential for high heat flux removal in electronics and other devices. The small channel dimensions characteristic of these channels result, under most circumstances, in laminar flow at the flow rates used in these applications. The present work investigates the applicability of the correlation developed by Kandlikar a...

Boiling crisis experiments are carried out in the vicinity of the liquid-gas critical point of H2. A magnetic gravity compensation setup is used to enable nucleate boiling at near critical pressure. The measurements of the critical heat flux that defines the threshold for the boiling crisis are carried out as a function of the distance from the critical point. The obtained power law behavior an...

This work examines the e}ectiveness of the zero!angle cavities created by curved contact with a ~at surface in promoting vapor embryo capture\ low temperature boiling incipience\ and reduction or elimination of the incipience temperature overshoot with highly wetting liquids[ Using FC!61 as a test liquid\ both single and multiple spherical point contacts on a ~at heater in both horizontal and v...

Experiments are performed to correlate and model CHF during subcooled flow boiling of dielectric fluoro~rbon (FC-72) liquid on a smooth 12.7 x 12.7 mm* sirn~at~ electronic chip inside a vertical rectangular channel. Two distinct CHF regimes are established based on flow visualization and experimental data. At low flow velocities, CHF is accompanied by the formation of a continuous vapor blanket...
