Chapter 6. Boiling heat transfer

The formation of steam bubbles along a heat transfer surface has a significant effect on the overall heat transfer rate.

2.15 DESCRIBE the process that occurs in the following regions of the boiling heat transfer curve:
  1. Nucleate boiling
  2. Partial film boiling
  3. Film boiling
  4. Departure from nucleate boiling (DNB)
  5. Critical heat flux
