Lecture

Pool Boiling II: Gibbs Free Energy Analysis

Description

This lecture delves into the analysis of pool boiling phenomena, focusing on the Gibbs free energy of vapor embryos, onset of nucleate boiling, and bubble departure timescales. The formation of a vapor embryo and the Gibbs free energy change are explored, along with the critical heat flux and film boiling regime. The lecture also covers the Gibbs free energy change in different phases and the equilibrium bubble radius after embryo formation. The discussion extends to the Gibbs free energy change and the equilibrium bubble radius, emphasizing the critical heat flux and thermodynamic equilibrium between phases.
