Based on the maximum CHF (critical heat flux) criterion, an optimal heat transfer criterion, which is called H criterion, was proposed. Experimental apparatuses were conducted. Distilled water was used as the working fluid. Three different DANFOSS nozzles with cone angles being 54°, 50° and 54° respectively were used. A 30×30mm2 square copper surface was used as the heated surface. Experimental results indicated that the volumetric fluxes were proportioned to P0.5, where P is the pressure drop across the nozzles. The optimal distance between the nozzles and the heated surface were derived. The results indicated that the optimal heat transfer appeared while the outside of the impellent thin spray film inscribed in the square heated surface. Based on the H criterion aforementioned, two DANFOSS nozzles of the three, with cone angles being 54° and 50° respectively, were used to study the temperature distribution of the heated surface while there were spray inclination angles during spray cooling experiments. Distilled water was also used impacting on the 30×30mm2 square copper surface aforementioned and a circular heated copper surface with diameters being 30mm respectively. The heat flux of the surface was kept in constant (about 26–35W/cm2). The inclination angles were 0°, 10°, 20°, 30°, 40° and 50° respectively. Three thermocouples imbedded in the heated surface were used to predict the grads of the temperature of the surface. Experimental results indicated that the temperature and the grads of the temperature of the surface increases first and then decreases with the increase of the inclination angle.
