Pool boiling on modified surfaces using R-123
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated saturated pool boiling of R-123 for five horizontal copper surfaces modified by different treatments, namely, an emery-polished surface, a fine sandblasted surface, rough sandblasting surface, an electron beam-enhanced surface, and a sintered surface.
