Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this paper, an experimentally studied transient boiling heat transfer under forced convection was conducted, where an exponential increasing heat input was supplied to a platinum wire in water flowing upward in a round tube at pressures from 0.143 to 1.503 MPa.

TL;DR: In this paper, the results of fast transient boiling tests using rapidly heated platinum wires immersed in water were presented, showing that very fast heating resulted in spontaneous nucleation on the wire surface and exceptionally high rates of heat transfer.

TL;DR: An overview of the boiling process, including recent advances made toward a mechanistic understanding of nucleate and transition boiling, is presented in this article, but this review does not include boiling on enhanced surfaces or boiling of mixtures.
Abstract: In this paper an overview of the boiling process, including recent advances made toward a mechanistic understanding of nucleate and transition boiling, is presented. Out of necessity, the review does not include boiling on enhanced surfaces or boiling of mixtures. Discussion of film boiling is also not included, as it is the subject of another review article. Only pool and external flow boiling of ordinary liquids are discussed. A few comments are made with respect to the theoretical and experimental studies that should be made in the future to further our understanding of the boiling process.

TL;DR: The behavior of vapor bubbles and vapor film during the transition from non-boiling regime such as natural convection or transient conduction regime to film boiling regime on a 1.2mm diameter platinum horizontal cylinder in liquid nitrogen and in water due to exponentially increasing heat inputs, ranging from a quasi-steady state heat input to a very rapidly increasing one, were examined by photographs taken by a high-speed video camera as discussed by the authors.
