Summary
Two-phase flow is often utilized in energy systems to deal with thermal issues, such as generating steam in the boiler of the power plant and dissipating the heat in the condenser. In advanced energy systems, including Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC), Carnot battery, proton-exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC), CO2 capture process etc., two-phase flow still serves as a major role in the thermal energy transfer process. In addition, new issues arise in some applications, such as the coupled heat and mass transfer in the two-phase flow for PEMFC and the chemical reaction added in CO2 capture process. Consequently, understanding the fundamentals and mechanisms of heat and mass transfer of the two-phase flow is of great significance in order to develop advanced energy technology for engineering applications.
This special issue aims to report and disseminate the latest advances in two-phase flow in advanced energy systems.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
• Two-phase flow and heat transfer in nano, micro, mini and macro-channels;
• Application of two-phase flow in ORC, PEMFC, Carnot battery, CO2 capture process and other advanced energy systems or processes;
• Boiling and condensation heat transfer;
• Fundamentals and mechanisms of two-phase flow and heat and mass transfer;
• Modeling and simulation of two-phase flow;
• Mass transfer coupled two-phase flow.
