Summary

The new version of the flow pattern map presented in Part I of this article (See this Bulletin, reference 2006-0107), has been used to modify the dry angle in the heat transfer model of Kattan-Thome-Favrat. This significantly improves the heat transfer prediction in stratified-wavy flow. Moreover, a new heat transfer prediction method has been developed for the dryout and mist flow regimes, which extends the applicability of the heat transfer model to these flow regimes. The new model also shows good agreement with the independent heat transfer data of Lallemand et al.
