Various distances between a hot spot and a planar heat sink for a 'tissue only' simulation. Already within 30 s a hot spot very close to a cooling blood flow – capable of transporting all applied energy immediately away – reaches a substantial critical volume using a critical temperature of 5 K. Notice that Figure 13d is differently scaled. The time development of the critical volume is shown in Figure 14.
