NUCLEATE BOILING. LITERATURE SEARCH

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4295848
The mechanism of boiling heat transfer is described including the effects of various liquid conditions. Forced convection and nucleate boiling heat transfer are considered in additlon to partial film boiling. Equations are presented for various pressure ranges, flow rates, and heating element geometries from which boiling locations can be predicted. Also included is a listing of equations which define conditions under which burnout would occur. Some of the more important variables and their effect on nucleate boiling and burnout are discussed, and a glossary of boiling heat transfer terms is included. 210 references. (J.R.D.)
