Superheating limits of liquid helium I

It is shown that the maximum superheat temperature ΔT max in liquid helium I, determined under steady-state peak nucleate boiling conditions, cannot be realistically estimated from the thermodynamic limit of superheat (spinodal), as has been previously claimed. It is suggested that a more meaningful...

description It is shown that the maximum superheat temperature ΔT max in liquid helium I, determined under steady-state peak nucleate boiling conditions, cannot be realistically estimated from the thermodynamic limit of superheat (spinodal), as has been previously claimed. It is suggested that a more meaningful estimate of ΔT max can be obtained from the kinetic limit of super-heat (homogeneous nucleation temperature). Experimental data on the homogeneous nucleation superheat temperature, ΔT h , in liquid helium I over an extended temperature range are presented and compared with the ΔT max measurements of several investigators. It is pointed out that in any quantitative predictions of ΔT max , a knowledge of ΔT h alone is not sufficient. In fact, the measured value of ΔT max can lie either below or even above ΔT h depending on the bath temperature, conditions of the surface, and the thermophysical properties of both heater and liquid.
