Dynamics of the wall thermal boundary layer at the initial stage of the nucleate boiling
This paper presents the results of the experimental study of the water nucleate boiling on the surface of the cylinder heater. We investigated the initial stage of formation of the thermal boundary layer with rise and departure of bubbles with the departure diameter of 50 μm. To build the field temperature at the moment prior to the start of boiling, we used a numerical model implemented in the COMSOL multiphysics software. The experimental data on bubbles dynamics was compared to the numerical calculation of the temperature, and the relationship between the temperature growth rate, the bubble departure diameter and the Jacob number was established. The outcome results demonstrated that the non-transient heat influences the departure diameter and we need to employ the modified Jacob number to build predictive models. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.
