TLDR
In this paper, the authors measured the characteristic pool-boiling curve for n-pentane at atmospheric pressure as a function of surface roughness, material and cleanliness, and concluded that transition boiling is a combination of unstable nucleate and unstable film boiling alternating at any location on the heating surface.

Heat-transfer correlations for natural convection boiling

TL;DR: In this article, a regression analysis was applied to the nearly 5000 existing experimental data points for natural convection boiling heat transfer, which can best be represented by subdividing the substances into four groups (water, hydrocarbons, cryogenic fluids and refrigerants) and employing a different set of dimensionless numbers for each group of substances.

Nucleate boiling. The region of isolated bubbles and the similarity with natural convection

TL;DR: In this article, it is shown that the same equations which predict the heat-transfer coefficient and the average turbulent velocity fluctuation in natural turbulent convection from a horizontal surface can be used in the regime of isolated bubbles if the vapor void coefficient i.e. the vapor hold-up is taken into account in evaluating the mean density of the fluid.

Review of pool boiling enhancement by surface modification

TL;DR: In this paper, a comprehensive review of published articles addressing passive enhancement of pool boiling using surface modification techniques is provided, including macroscale, microscale, and nanoscale surfaces, as well as multiscale (hybrid-scale), and hybrid-wettability techniques.

Hydrodynamic Aspects of Boiling Heat Transfer

Novak Zuber
TL;DR: In this paper, the critical heat flux and the minimum heat flux are derived from these hydrodynamic limits, and results of investigations of nucleate boilin g are discussed and the theory of bubble growth is extended to include the effect of nonuniform temperature fields.
