Shape of a vapour stem during nucleate boiling of saturated liquids.

Author(s) : LAY J. H., DHIR V. K.

Type of article: Article

Summary

The kinetic theory and the extended Clausius-Clapeyron equation are used to calculate the evaporative heat flux across the liquid-vapour interface. The effect of wall superheat on the shape of the vapour stem is parametrically analyzed and compared with limited data reported in the literature.
