Flow Boiling of a Dilute Emulsion In Smooth and Rough Microgaps

Dr. Brandon M. Shadakofsky received his BS in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Wyoming. He then conducted his doctoral research under the guidance of Dr. Francis A Kulacki and received his PhD from the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Minnesota. Dr. Francis A. Kulacki is a retired Professor in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Minnesota and distinguished awardee from- among other institutions- the American Society of Mechanical Engineering. His research interests included phase change phenomena and thermal management of electronic devices.
