Abstract:The paper focuses on the recent progress that has been achieved by the authors through conducting experiments with locally heated shear-driven and falling liquid films. Rupture of the liquid film was investigated and it was found that scenario of film rupture differs widely for different flow regimes. The critical heat flux is about 10 times higher for a shear driven film than that for a falling liquid film, and reaches 250 W/cm 2 in experiments with water at atmospheric pressure. Rupture of a subcooled fallin… Show more
