Boiling Heat Transfer Enhancement on Macro-, Micro- and Nano-scales
Abstract: This paper presents a review of investigations on boiling heat transfer enhancement on macro-, micro- and nano-scale surfaces and fluids by the authors at the Moscow Power Engineering Institute (MPEI) plus known results of other researchers. These investigations were conducted with the purpose of increasing safety and efficiency of power generating systems. The investigations were focused on such problems as effective cooling at high heat flux (1 MW/m2 and more), …

The Influence of The Oxide Layer on The Stress Corrosion Cracking Initiation in The Case of Incoloy 800 in The Alkaline Environment
Abstract: Oxidized and non-oxidized C-rings cuts from Incoloy 800 tubes were tested with the purpose to study the influence of the oxide layer in the first step of the stress corrosion cracking (SCC) mechanism. A mechanical pre-crack of 100mm depth was executed on the external side of the C-rings in order to create some stress concentrations. The oxidized C-rings were obtained by autoclaving for 20 days in demineralised water adjusted with …
