Critical boiling heat transfer: special case of smooth exchange of bubble and film boiling regimes

  • Published:
Journal of engineering physics Aims and scope

Abstract

The author presents results of an unconventional analysis of critical heat transfer interpreted as boundaries of a transition boiling region with a smooth exchange of bubble and film boiling regimes. A stepwise exchange of these boiling regimes, i.e., critical heat transfer in the textbook sense, is examined as a special case. The influence of various parameters on the boundaries and the transition boiling zone is demonstrated.
