Summary

NATURAL CONVECTION FILM BOILING HEAT TRANSFER OF SATURATED LIQUIDS ON AN ISOTHERMAL VERTICAL SURFACE IS INVESTIGATED. EFFECTIVELY ISOTHERMAL SURFACE CONDITIONS ARE ACHIEVED EVEN FOR WALL SUPERHEATS UP TO 450 K. EXPERIMENTS CONDUCTED WITH WATER AT 101 KILOPASCALS PRESSURE SHOW THAT PREDICTIONS FROM EXISTING THEORETICAL MODELS ARE INADEQUATE. STILL AND MOTION PICTURES OF THE VAPOUR FILM ARE TAKEN AND DATA ON VAPOUR FILM THICKNESS, INTERFACIAL WAVE BEHAVIOUR, AND BUBBLE DETACHMENT CHARACTERISTICS ARE OBTAINED TO BUILD AN ANALYTICAL MODEL FOR PREDICTING FILM BOILING HEAT TRANSFER.
