He II film boiling is of both academic and applied interests. However, the information about film boiling heat transfer in He II is still insufficient and needs further investigation. In the present study, a thin stainless steel foil heater (10 {mu} m thick) is used to cause boiling in He II. The heater temperature is measured to evaluate the heat transfer performance of He II film boiling under different thermal conditions. The pressure and the heater surface temperature oscillations induced by the film boiling are also simultaneously measured. The heat transfer coefficients of three kinds of boiling states: noisy film boiling, transition boiling and silent film boiling, are obtained in the present study.
