Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this paper, it is shown that a thin layer of liquid (the microlayer) forms beneath the vapour bubble, which can also be deduced from a simple theory for the hydrodynamics of the formation of the layer.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this article, a theoretical technique to predict the thermal conductivity of heterogeneous solid mixtures has been developed, which does not require experimental data on the mean and standard deviations of the one dimensional porosity function describing the distribution of the discontinuous phase as is the case with Tsao's model.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this article, a theory is presented to determine the rate of growth of a vapour bubble growing from a heated wall in a liquid which is near to saturation temperature, based on approximate assumptions derived from experiments in which thin liquid layers (microlayers) were observed to occur under such bubbles, and in which evaporation of the microlayers contributed significantly to the growth of the bubbles.
