Summary

TRANSIENT HEAT TRANSFER TO LIQUID HYDROGEN WAS INVESTIGATED. THIN CARBON FILMS AND PLATINUM FOILS SUBMERGED IN LIQUID HYDROGEN RECEIVED STEPPED POWER INPUTS OF 1 TO 42 WATTS/CM2, AND THE ONSET OF NUCLEATE OR FILM BOILING WAS OBTAINED FOR EACH POWER LEVEL. THE CRITICAL HEAT FLUX WAS FOUND TO BE APPROXIMATELY 8 WATTS/CM2, WITH THE TRANSITION TO FILM BOILING OCCURRING IN TIMES LESS THAN 0.001 S.
