Abstract
Since the heat transfer coefficient associated with the phase change in microchannels is significantly affected by the two-phase flow regime, visualization of the phase change in microchannels has always received research interests. In this chapter, questions such as how the boiling regimes in microchannels differ from those observed in large tubes, and what exactly happens at the moment of the phase change will be answered.
