Liquid-solid contact in steady-state transition pool boiling

A recently developed technique of measuring liquid-solid contact has been applied to steady-state pool boiling of methanol. The boiling curve has also been measured. Contrary to the assumptions often made about transition boiling, the liquid-solid contact is not complete at the critical heat flux, a...

Description
Summary:A recently developed technique of measuring liquid-solid contact has been applied to steady-state pool boiling of methanol. The boiling curve has also been measured. Contrary to the assumptions often made about transition boiling, the liquid-solid contact is not complete at the critical heat flux, and the heat flux during the liquid contact periods is not constant but falls with increasing temperature.
