Abstract

The paper describes an experimental
study of thermal fluctuations during
transition from bubble to film boiling
of water on a wire heater and
fluctuations of the shape of a
superheated liquid jet discharged from a
high-pressure vessel. It is found that
for a heat-transfer crisis on the wire
heater and for intense volume boiling of
the superheated liquid jet, the
fluctuation power spectrum has a low-
frequency component (flicker noise)that
diverges under the law 1/f. This effect
is due to nonequilibrium phase
transitions in the system<!colon!> the
heat<!dash!>transfer crisis during
transition from bubble to film boiling
and a flow crisis during boiling of the
superheated liquid jet. P. 109-113
