Abstract
The development of transition boiling modes is virtually the formation and spreading process of dry patches induced by applied superheat or heat fluxes. Given that the interactions among multiple dry patches with different sizes, transition boiling can only be described in statistical way. In this paper, dry patches statistical distribution function was obtained and the stochastic feature of transition to stable film boiling was then discussed. The new academic implications on classical MHF (minimal heat flux) model have been revealed. The present investigations tried to make a renewed effort to the understanding of transition boiling. Available experimental results revealed that the present analysis was more reasonable than traditional one in framework.
