Abstract
A recent investigation reported steady-state measurements of film boiling heat transfer from a flat horizontal circular surface to an overlying pool of water at saturation and atmospheric pressure. Measurements were made from near the Minimum Film Boiling (MFB) point to a superheat of approximately 570 K. These data substantiate that the Berenson model is applicable at temperatures larger than previously observed, as long as a correction is applied to account for the effect of thermal radiation to the overall heat transfer. The objective of this work is to show quantitatively the validity of the Berenson film boiling model at surface superheats well above the MFB to approximately 600 K.
