Anomalous Behavior of Liquid-Nitrogen Drops in Film Boiling

Part of the book series: Advances in Cryogenic Engineering ((ACRE,volume 16))

Abstract

Film boiling of liquid drops, called Leidenfrost boiling, plays an important role in energy transfer in cryogenic systems. Leidenfrost boiling occurs when a liquid drop rests on a cushion of its own vapor resulting from heat transfer from a hot supporting surface. A comprehensive literature summary of Leidenfrost boiling is given elsewhere [1–3].
