Heat Transfer of a Liquid-Solid Contact in a Subcooled Pool Boiling System : Transition-Type Boiling Regime and Minute Bubble Emission Boiling Regime

This report describes liquid-solid contact behavior in the subcooled pool transition-type boiling regime and the minute bubble emission boiling regime, detected by a void probe that uses a series-resonance circuit. This probe can approach the heated surface within two to three micrometers. The liquid-solid contact state discussed in this report means the nucleate boiling state caused by liquid invasion or Leidenfrost state caused by liquid rush onto the dry part on the heated surface. The dried area on the heated surface was estimated on the basis of the void signal, and the relation between the dried area on the heated surface and the measured heat flux was clarified by introducing a nucleate boiling model.
