| Summary: | Title screen Laser technologies for processing metals used as heat exchange surfaces are unrivaled to solve a number of problems in the energy industry. This is explained by the fact that after laser radiation treatment, metal surfaces gain unique surface functional properties (extreme wettability properties, high resistance to corrosion in contact with traditional coolants, high abrasive and cavitation resistance). The study of the processes of evaporation, boiling, and condensation on such surfaces is hampered by one of the unsolved problems, which is the lack of the ability to predict the configuration of microtextures, for example, in the form of micropillars and microchannels with predetermined sizes. In this work, a graphic–analytical technique based on the use of ablation spot sizes for the formation of a given configuration and microtexture dimensions on traditional structural materials of heat exchange surfaces is developed. Based on experimental data, regime maps were constructed for the formation of microtextures on the surfaces of aluminum alloy AlMg6 and steel AISI 310. The prospects for using metal surfaces with a given microtexture formed by laser radiation to intensify the phase transition of coolants and control convective flows in a droplet lying on a heated surface were assessed. The obtained results can be used in the development of spray (drip) irrigation systems to provide thermal protection for heat-stressed equipment Текстовый файл |
