The subject matter presented deals with the mechanism of boiling heat transfer which is described in some detail. Following this, the effects of different liquid conditions on this mechanism are discussed. Later the forced convection and nucleate boiling modes of heat transfer are identified, after which partial film boiling is introduced. Equations are presented for various pressure ranges, flow rates, and heating element geometries which predict conditions where boiling will take place. This is followed by a listing of the 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 briefly. A glossary of boiling heat transfer terms is included to aid those unfamiliar with the subject in orienting themselves in this field. It is recommended that the reader review the terminology before attempting the report. The information presented is believed to be the best and the latest in the field of nucleate boiling, and should enable a fairly complete analysis to be made of nucleate boiling and burnout in pressurized water reactors.
