While its inherent advantages have made air cooling the method of choice for the vast majority of electronic systems, the relatively poor thermophysical properties of air limit its ability to meet today's more demanding thermal requirements. Therefore, researchers have continued to investigate liquid cooling techniques such as microchannel forced convection, jet impingement, and pool boiling heat transfer. Although water has superior thermal properties, concern over its dielectric strength and chemical activity have directed attention to the use of the inert and dielectric perfluorocarbons as alternative cooling fluids, with particular emphasis on harnessing boiling and evaporative heat transfer processes. Passive pool boiling with these dielectric fluids, including the effects of subcooling, pressure, length scale, mixtures, surface enhancements, and nanoadditives, has been investigated by a large number of researchers. The present study focuses on the critical heat flux for pool boiling of these dielectric liquids, representing the upper limit of the nucleate pool boiling regime, and provides a review and summary of the work reported in more than 100 archival papers by research groups from around the globe.enginfo:eu-repo/semantics/restrictedAccessArticle4317610.1016/B978-0-12-381529-3.00001-3Critical heat fluxKutateladze–Zuber modelSubcooling effectHeater thermal propertiesSurface orientationNanofluidsMaximum heat fluxCHF correlationPressure effectSurface properties2-s2.0-82355184599
