Summary

Forced film boiling arises when a liquid flows over a highly superheated surface or when the surface moves through a liquid which is stationary or is itself in motion. As a result of the vapour layer separating the surface and the liquid, there is a significant reduction in the drag force and heat transfer. In the study, a similarity solution of the boundary layer equations is obtained, and for a wide range of subcooling parameters and surface velocities, related numerical results are shown to be in excellent agreement with predictions based on an integral method.
