Fundamental issues related to flow boiling in minichannels and microchannels
TL;DR: In this article, the effects of the channel size on the flow patterns and heat transfer and pressure drop performance are reviewed in small hydraulic diameter channels, and the fundamental questions related to the presence of nucleate boiling and characteristics of flow boiling in microchannels and minichannels in comparison to that in the conventional channel sizes (3 mm and above) are addressed.

Saturation nucleate pool boiling - a simple correlation
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors fitted experimental data for saturation nucleate pool boiling with a correlation of new simple type, using only reduced pressure, molecular weight and surface roughness, which made it easier to see the wood among the trees, and see where data are lacking or contradictory.
