“…Interestingly, this equation and the hydrodynamic theory equation are essentially the same, except for the parameter k, which according to Theofanous and Dinh [20] "for a well-wetting surface is smaller than for a poorly-wetting surface"; i.e., everything else being the same, a well-wetting surface will have a higher CHF than a poorly-wetting surface [26,50]. D) Bubble interaction theory, which postulates that CHF occurs when at high heat flux the bubble number and departure frequency become so high that the bubbles coalesce radially, thus preventing liquid access to the surface [Rosenhow and Griffith, [21]].…”
