• Critical heat flux — describes the thermal limit of a phenomenon where a phase change occurs during heating (such as bubbles forming on a metal surface used to heat water), which suddenly decreases the efficiency of heat transfer, thus causing localised overheating… …   Wikipedia

• Heat flux — or thermal flux is a flow of energy per unit of area per unit of time. In SI units, it is measured in [W·m 2] . It has both a direction and a magnitude so it is a vectorial quantity. To define the heat flux at a certain point in space, one takes… …   Wikipedia

• Heat transfer — is a discipline of thermal engineering that concerns the exchange of thermal energy from one physical system to another. Heat transfer is classified into various mechanisms, such as heat conduction, convection, thermal radiation, and phase change …   Wikipedia

• Quantum flux parametron — Invented by Eiichi Goto (後藤英一) at the University of Tokyo, the Quantum Flux Parametron (QFP) is an improvement over his earlier parametron (パラメトロン) based digital logic technology. Unlike its predecessor, QFP uses superconducting Josephson… …   Wikipedia

• Nucleate boiling — is a type of boiling that takes place when the surface temperature is hotter than the saturated fluid temperature by a certain amount but where the heat flux is below the critical heat flux. For water, as shown in the graph below, nucleate… …   Wikipedia

• Coolant — A coolant is a fluid which flows through a device to prevent its overheating, transferring the heat produced by the device to other devices that use or dissipate it. An ideal coolant has high thermal capacity, low viscosity, is low cost, non… …   Wikipedia

• Behavior of nuclear fuel during a reactor accident — This page is devoted to a discussion of how uranium dioxide nuclear fuel behaves during both normal nuclear reactor operation and under reactor accident conditions such as overheating. Work in this area is often very expensive to conduct, and so… …   Wikipedia

• Nuclear fuel response to reactor accidents — This page is devoted to a discussion of how uranium dioxide nuclear fuel behaves during both normal nuclear reactor operation and under reactor accident conditions such as overheating. Work in this area is often very expensive to conduct, and so… …   Wikipedia

• Leidenfrost effect — The Leidenfrost effect is a phenomenon in which a liquid, in near contact with a mass significantly hotter than its boiling point, produces an insulating vapor layer which keeps that liquid from boiling rapidly. This is most commonly seen when… …   Wikipedia
