Boiling Heat Transfer Laboratory

Overview

Welcome to the boiling heat transfer laboratory at UCLA. The boiling heat transfer group is a pioneer in both fundamental as well as applied sciences concerning boiling, a very efficient and complex process of heat removal.

The boiling heat transfer lab was founded in the early 70's and since then has contributed to the ever expanding knowledge in the field of heat transfer. Currently the lab is involved in the study of flow boiling, microgravity boiling, high efficiency heat exchangers, electronic cooling and other theoretical, numerical and experimental study.

The lab is equipped with modern equipment such as gas chromatograph, gamma densitometer, data aquisition systems, high speed imaging systems, laser doppler velocimetry equipment, personal computers and workstations.
