Towards Climate Friendly Thermal Management

The interview shows the progress on investigation of microevaporators of the subproject "Modeling, metrological characterization and active control of evaporation processes in microchannel systems" within the research unit "Assessing and Controlling Dynamic Local Process Conditions in Microreactors via Novel Integrated Microsensors" (ProMiSe). Nima Samkhaniani (ISTM, KIT) and Mark Schepperle (IMTEK, University Freiburg) explain the project goals and realization of numerical and experimental investigations of a single channel microevaporator-device. They show the manufacturing process including clean-room manufacturing, sensor design and also the details of corresponging numerical simulation, where the nucleation bubble formation is captured.
