On the Vapor Film Destabilization Mechanism during Unsteady Film Boiling

High Temperature Aims and scope

Abstract

We present new experimental data on the cooling of nickel and duralumin spheres in subcooled water and ethanol, along with a review of our comprehensive experimental investigations from 2015 to 2022. The hypothesis on the vapor film destabilization mechanism during unsteady cooling of high-temperature bodies is elucidated. Additionally, new correlations are proposed for estimating the temperature head at the cessation of film boiling in both saturated and subcooled liquids. The derived equations are validated against an extensive body of proprietary experimental data as well as data from other researchers, exhibiting strong qualitative and quantitative agreement with experimental outcomes.
