Abstract A study of single bubbles growing on a microscale heater array kept at nominally constant temperature was performed. The behavior of bubbles nucleating at a single site at two different temperatures (22.5 K and 27.5 K superheat) is compared for saturated pool boiling of FC-72 at 1 atm. It is concluded that energy is transferred from the surface through similar heat transfer mechanisms at both superheats. Microlayer evaporation was observed to play a minor role in the overall heat transfer, with microconvection/transient conduction being the dominant mechanism. Evaluation of various heat transfer models are made.

Enhanced convection, transient conduction, microlayer evaporation, and contact line heat transfer have all been proposed as mechanisms by which bubbles transfer energy during boiling. Models based on these mechanisms contain fitting parameters that are used to fit them to the data, resulting a proliferation of “validated” models. A review of the recent experimental, analytical, and numerical work into single bubble heat transfer is presented to determine the contribution of each of the above mechanisms to the overall heat transfer. Transient conduction and microconvection are found to be the dominant heat transfer mechanisms.

Investigations into single bubble pool boiling phenomena are often complicated by the difficulties in obtaining time and space resolved information in the bubble region. This usually occurs because the heaters and diagnostics used to measure heat transfer data are often on the order of, or larger than, the bubble characteristic length or region of influence. This has contributed to the development of many different and sometimes contradictory models of pool boiling phenomena and dominant heat transfer mechanisms.

The effects of surface treatments and “gassy-subcooling” on pool boiling heat transfer are quantified by testing both smooth and treated surfaces at gassy-subcooling levels from O°C to 40°C (1 atm) and 40°C to 85°C (3 atm). Incipient and nucleate boiling wall superheats decrease over this range of gassy-subcooling. At gassy-subcooling levels greater than 20°C, the boiling curves for the smooth surface indicate two distinct regions governed by different heat transfer mechanisms, one in which the boiling process is influenced by the presence of dissolved gas, the other by boiling of the pure liquid. The critical heat flux (CHF) for each surface continually increases with increased levels of gassy-subcooling and the CHF sensitivity to gassy-subcooling is higher for the treated surface. The CHF increase due to combined surface treatment and gassy-subcooling (85°C) is ~400 percent (78 W/cm2).
