Abstract
The recent results of molecular-dynamics simulation of nanosecond vaporization of a thin liquid film are analyzed within the continual approach. The analysis shows a significant increase in the thermal conductivity at the film temperature maximum before its explosive decomposition, which indicates the closeness of the achievable limiting overheating temperature to the spinodal.
