摘要:The proper identification of the existence of the boiling phenomena in a process from the trend of the Nukiyama pool-boiling curve (Q versus ∆T) is not appropriate as it does not always reveal right information. All the heating and cooling around the boiling point mimic the boiling behavior; however, these are not always actually a part of the boiling process. Therefore, the proper identification and discrimination among boiling methodologies need to be revealed as the information on the discussed issues are not available in the open literature. Hence, an attempt has been made to develop a condition describing the existence of boiling behavior in heating or quenching process and protocol to identify various boiling regimes. In the current work, the developed conditions (1/ St) are validated with various type of boiling processes and the protocol (i.e. based on the slope of h versus ∆T curve rather than boiling curve) is also valid for the identification of proper boiling regime.
