Summary

The work elucidated the effects of liquid subcooling on the relative stability between nucleate boiling and film boiling on an inclined surface. At each heater's orientation and liquid subcooling of 0-20 K, the co-existing heat fluxes were found, from which the equilibrium heat flux was identified. Experimental results indicate that equilibrium heat flux increases with liquid subcooling, with the maximum equilibrium heat flux occurring at rotating the surface by 90° from the horizontal position.
