A typical pool boiling curve (see eg. Carey, 1992; Dhir, 1998 ; Incropera and DeWitt, 2002) for water at atmospheric conditions is shown in Fig. 1, where the heat flux, q’’ , is given as a function of the wall superheat temperature. Liquid flow has a strong influence on bubble growth and bubble. The bubble departure frequency influences the nucleate boiling heat transfer. The faster the bubbles depart from the boiling surface. Experimental setup and method The heat losses of the insulated set-up at steady state are determined in two separate experiments. In the first experiment the heat loss is determined as the amount of heat needed to maintain a stable temperature when no water is present in the boiling pot. The second experiment determines the heat loss from the difference of the electrical power input and the evaporation enthalpy of the inflowing water at steady state conditions. The heat loss through the insulation estimated by the two different methods was 1.50 ± 0.05 W. Although the different boundary condition in case of the ‘‘empty boiling pot method” leads to a more uniform temperature distribution in the copper heating block, the two measurements give the same result within a 0.05W uncertainty. This indicates that the temperature distribution within the copper heating block is only a secondary effect which lies within the 0.05W estimation precision. For higher wall superheats this heat loss increases in proportion to 1.78 ± 0.05 W.
