Figure 17

Schematic representation of the onset of nucleate boiling in the different boiling surfaces: (a) surface with alternatively filled channels; (b) surface with empty channels; (c) surface with filled channels; (d) plain surface. The figure includes the location of the active nucleation sites, the effect of low-conductive channels on supplying water to the surface, and the surface temperature distribution [93].
