Study of bubble growth in water pool boiling through synchronized, infrared thermometry and high-speed video

High-speed video and infrared thermometry were used to obtain time- and space-resolved information on bubble nucleation and heat transfer in pool boiling of water. The bubble departure diameter and frequency, growth and wait times, and nucleation site density were directly measured for a thin, elect...
