The aim of the two–set series is to present a very detailed and up–to–date reference for researchers and practicing engineers in the fields of mechanical, refrigeration, chemical, nuclear and electronics engineering on the important topic of two-phase heat transfer and two-phase flow. The scope of the first set of 4 volumes presents the fundamentals of the two-phase flows and heat transfer mechanisms, and describes in detail the most important prediction methods, while the scope of the second set of 4 volumes presents numerous special topics and numerous applications, also including numerical simulation methods.

Practicing engineers will find extensive coverage to applications involving: multi-microchannel evaporator cold plates for electronics cooling, boiling on enhanced tubes and tube bundles, flow pattern based methods for predicting boiling and condensation inside horizontal tubes, pressure drop methods for singularies (U-bends and contractions), boiling in multiport tubes, and boiling and condensation in plate heat exchangers. All of these chapters include the latest methods for predicting not only local heat transfer coefficients but also pressure drops.

Professors and students will find this "Encylopedia of Two-Phase Heat Transfer and Flow" particularly exciting, as it contains authored books and thorough state-of-the-art reviews on many basic and special topics, such as numerical modeling of two-phase heat transer and adiabatic bubbly and slug flows, the unified annular flow boiling model, flow pattern maps, condensation and boiling theories, new emerging topics, etc.

Dedication

The editor of Set 1 and the Editor-in-Chief of this entire Encyclopedia wish to dedicate Set I to the authors who made this possible . . . my sincere thanks to all the authors. Secondly, I wish to thank Jungho Kim for stepping in and giving me a great hand in getting Set II together. It is my hope that the readers will find all of these volumes of scientific and engineering use.

Preface of Set I

Set I is a collection of four authored volumes written by leading experts in the fields of two-phase flow (Vol. 1), condensation (Vol. 2) and boiling (Vols. 3 and 4). Profs. Taitel and Barnea have proposed an extensive treatise on the modeling of gas–liquid flows in pipes, covering numerous topics from bubble dynamics, flow pattern transitions, etc. Profs. Garimella and Fronk have proposed the first ever book entirely devoted to condensation, covering a wide range of internal and external condensation processes and prediction models. Profs. Thome and Cioncolini have proposed a book with a unified treatment of two-phase flow and boiling in macroand microchannels, integrating the relevant associated methods for flow pattern maps, pressure drops, entrainment, void fraction and critical heat flux. Prof. Poniewski and research team have proposed a detailed treatment of additional important topics in pool and flow boiling on novel enhanced surfaces and inside mini- and microchannels.
