Abstract

Heat transfer rates and the accompanying sound intensities are reported for pool boiling of water on a tubular stainless steel heater at pressures in the range 760-90 torr and liquid subcoolings of up to 60°C. When nucleate boiling occurs with the regular formation of similarly sized bubbles from fixed nucleation sites, as when water boils under atmospheric conditions, a progressive decrease in the sound intensity is produced by a decrease in the heat flux. A transition from this regular process occurs at low pressures and in this region the sound intensity is not uniquely related to the heat flux. A review of reported work on sound emissions accompanying pool boiling is included.
