On the Size Range of Active Nucleation Cavities on a Heating Surface

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed a model to define the size range of active cavities as a function of wall temperature or heat flux, and showed that maximum and minimum sizes of effective cavities are functions of subcooling, pressure of the system, physical properties, and the thickness of the superheated liquid layer.

The mechanism of heat transfer in nucleate pool boiling—Part I: Bubble initiaton, growth and departure

TL;DR: In this article, a criterion for bubble initiation from a gas filled cavity on a surface in contact with a superheated layer of liquid was developed, and it was found that the temperature of bubble initiation on a given surface is a function of the temperature conditions in the liquid surrounding the cavity as well as the surface properties themselves.

Dripping characteristics in a horizontal tube film evaporator

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors studied the effect of dripping on the transfer rate of a horizontal tube bundle and revealed a hysteresis-type phenomenon which is associated with the direction of flow rate increments.
