Multifunctional periodic cellular metals (2006, background): “However, they provide a high thermal conductivity path for thermal transport, possess a very high surface area for heat transfer to a cooling fluid and provide a contiguous (though tortuous) path for coolant flow through the structure (Boomsa & Poulikakos 2001; Bhattacharya et al. 2002; Phanikumar &”
Simulations of flow through open cell metal foams using an idealized periodic cell structure (2003, background): “In the experimental work by Bhattacharya et al. (2002) , for open cell foams with pore diameters of approximately 2 mm within a porosity range between 91% and 96%, the overall flow resistance remained nearly constant.”
