Tomio Okawa started his research career at the Central Research Institute of the
Electric Power Industry in 1990 and earned a doctor of engineering degree from the
Tokyo Institute of Technology in 1995 after receiving bachelor’s and master’s
degrees from Tokyo Institute of Technology. Then, he moved to the Department of
Mechanical Engineering at Osaka University in 1999, and to his present position
(The University of Electro-Communications, Tokyo, Japan) in 2011. His main
research areas are gas-liquid two-phase flow and heat transfer with phase change.
At present, he is doing research on subcooled flow boiling, departure from nucleate
boiling, boiling heat transfer of nanofluid, application of nanoparticle layer to cooling
of electronic devices, splashing during drop and liquid jet impingements on a
liquid film, and therm
- Written by experts from the leaders and pioneers in thermal and nuclear power engineering research at the Japanese Society of Mechanical Engineers and draws upon their combined wealth of knowledge and experience
- Includes real examples and case studies from Japan and other key regions such as the United States and Europe to provide a deeper learning opportunity
- Considers societal impact and sustainability concerns and goals throughout
