Abstract
A mathematical model for bubble dynamics in subcooled nucleate boiling is derived. This model is based on the mass transfer mechanism of evaporation and condensation through the bubble. The bubble is considered to be a control volume. Heat and mass balance couples transient heat transfer caused by evaporation and condensation with bubble growth and collapse. Solutions to this model compare favorably with experimental data. This model predicts mass transfer accounts for most of the heat removed from the heated surface during subcooled nucleate boiling.
