Abstract
In this article, an approximate analytical solution of an integro‐differential system of equations is constructed, which describes the process of intense boiling of a superheated liquid. The kinetic and balance equations for the bubble‐size distribution function and liquid temperature are solved analytically using the Laplace transform and saddle‐point methods with allowance for an arbitrary dependence of the bubble growth rate on temperature. The rate of bubble appearance therewith is considered in accordance with the Dering–Volmer and Frenkel–Zeldovich–Kagan nucleation theories. It is shown that the initial distribution function decreases with increasing the dimensionless size of bubbles and shifts to their greater values with time.
