Optical visualization of heat transfer in supercritical carbon dioxide under near-critical, liquid-like, and gas-like conditions

What is it about?

Heat and mass transport phenomena under supercritical conditions are important to develop and improve applications using supercritical fluids, such as abstraction, material processing, and soil remediation. In this paper, we propose a powerful optical visualization method for evaluating heat and mass transport phenomena in supercritical fluids.

Why is it important?

Transient heat transfer under supercritical conditions was successfully measured in this paper. Our proposed visualization method could help in advances in understanding heat and mass transport phenomena in supercritical fluid.
