A General Correlation for Saturated Two-Phase Flow Boiling Heat Transfer Inside Horizontal and Vertical Tubes

TL;DR: In this article, a simple correlation was developed earlier by Kandlikar (1983) for predicting saturated flow boiling heat transfer coefficients inside horizontal and vertical tubes, which was further refined by expanding the data base to 5,246 data points from 24 experimental investigations with ten fluids.
