“…It is indicated that increasing wettability (contact angle) of the heating surface will reduce the active nucleation site density and bubble departure frequency, and thus weaken the heat transfer coefficient of the heating surface. Zhang et al [87] numerically studied the influence of thickness and material properties of the solid wall on bubble dynamics and local heat transfer. They concluded that for the same material and bottom temperature, bubble growth time decreases with the wall thickness, while the departure diameter increases.…”

Understanding nucleate pool boiling heat transfer and, in particular the accurate prediction of conditions that can lead to critical heat flux, is of the utmost importance in many industries. Due to the safety issues related to the nuclear power plants, and for the efficient operation of many heat transfer units including fossil fuel boilers, fusion reactors, electronic chips, etc., it is important to understand this kind of heat transfer. In this paper, a comprehensive review of analytical and numerical work on nucleate pool boiling heat transfer is presented. In order to understand this phenomenon, existing studies on boiling heat transfer coefficient and boiling heat flux are also discussed, as well as characteristics of boiling phenomena such as bubble departure diameter, bubble departure frequency, active nucleation site density, bubble waiting and growth period and their impact on pool boiling heat transfer.

“…Zhang等人 [17] 、Li等人 [18] 以单气泡池沸腾过程作为主要研究对象, 对Stephan和Hammer Boiling phenomenon can realize high performance heat exchange due to latent heat transportation accompanying the liquid-vapor phase change, resulting in its wide applications for high heat flux transfer both in normal gravity on the ground and in space microgravity environment. It is well known that gravity strongly affects boiling phenomenon by creating forces in the systems that drive motions, shape boundaries, and compress fluids.…”

“…More importantly, it's hard to investigate the effect of gravitational acceleration on bubbles' dynamics and the related heat transfer process by such experiments. Recently, the rapid development of computer science and technology and numerical simulation technologies provide a new reliable method for the investigation on bubbles' dynamics and related pool nucleate boiling phenomena (Son et al 2001;Mukherjee and Kandlikar 2007;Li et al 2015;Zhang et al 2015). Lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) is one of the most effective numerical method that can be used in such studies.…”

A three-dimensional hybrid lattice Boltzmann method was used to simulate the progress of a single bubble's growth and departure from a horizontal superheated wall. The evolutionary process of the bubble shapes and also the temperature fields during pool nucleate boiling were obtained and the influence of the gravitational acceleration on the bubble departure diameter (BDD), the bubble release frequency (BRF) and the heat flux on the superheated wall was analyzed. The simulation results obtained by the present three-dimensional numerical studies demonstrate that the BDD is proportional to g −0.301 , the BRF is proportional to g −0.58 , and the averaged wall heat flux is proportional to g 0.201 , where g is the gravitational acceleration. These results are in good agreement with the common-used experimental correlations, indicating the rationality of the present numerical model and results.
