Abstract

Interface oscillations during boiling are studied experimentally and theoretically. The output-signal spectra of light and acoustic sensors indicate that the liquid-pressure and interface oscillations are interrelated. A model is suggested for the oscillations of a bubble growing on a heating surface, and the existence of an attractor is deduced for the first time from the solution of model equations. The data obtained enable one to determine the ranges of interface oscillation amplitude and frequency and can be used in the modeling of boiling.
