Abstract
Film boiling is a form of change-of-phase heat transfer which is characterized by a solid body transferring heat to a surrounding liquid through an intermediate vapor film The vapor film forms a continuous, relatively regular blanket over the solid surface. This liquid-over-vapor arrangement is inherently unstable. However, the solid—liquid temperature differences characteristic of film boiling are so large that no liquid can remain in contact with the solid, thus maintaining the stable film.
