🔥 Pool Boiling and the Nukiyama Curve: Heater Wire, Critical Heat Flux and Burnout (2D)
A heated nichrome wire in boiling water: raise the heat flux or hold the wall superheat and watch natural convection, nucleate boiling, the critical heat flux, transition and film boiling on the live Nukiyama curve, with Rohsenow, Zuber and Bromley correlations and a burnout event.
