Abstract
A dimensionless correlation is developed for nucleate boiling buzrnout data including the following ranges of variables. Fluids - Water Bensene n - Heptane n - Pentane Ethanol Pressure - 0.0045 to 0.96 of critical pressure Velocity - 0 to 110 ft/see. Subcooling - 0 to 280 OF Quality - 0 to 70% The data is drawn from a variety of sources and has been collected on widely varying types of systems. Over 300 points are correlated with 94% of the points included between the ł33% envelope drawn aroumd the best line through the points, The correlation includes only fluid properties and quantities which can be calculated on the assumption of eqnilibrium conditions at the burnout pointOffice of Naval Reseach National Science Foundation Grant D.I.C.
