摘要 |
A heat transfer component and heat transfer process are disclosed. The heat transfer component includes thermally-responsive features positioned along a surface of the heat transfer component. The thermally-responsive features deploy from or retract toward the surface in response to a predetermined temperature change. The deploying from or the retracting toward of the thermally-responsive features increases or decreases a rate of heat transfer between a flow along the surface and the surface. The heat transfer process includes providing a heat transfer component having thermally-responsive features positioned along a surface of the heat transfer component; and increasing or decreasing a heat transfer rate between the surface and a flow by deploying the thermally-responsive features from or the retracting the thermally-responsive features toward the surface in response to a predetermined temperature change.
