Abstract
The present paper is an overview of the latest developments regarding the application of nanofluids in boiling critical heat flux by means of both pool- and convective-flow boiling. Boiling heat transfer is a significant field in thermal engineering systems, and it is especially used for boiling in power plants as well as the cooling of nuclear reactors and high-tech electronic systems. This concise review contains efforts to show how nanofluids could play an essential role in achieving high heat flux with small temperature differences during the boiling process-which, in turn, improves the critical heat flux (boiling crisis) for such an operation and makes the heat-exchange system's performance safer and more durable. It is also expected that this work could be a helpful new reference guide that will allow investigators to update their knowledge on the topic of boiling critical heat flux using nanofluids. In addition, this work contains concise recommendations for future study directions.
