Onset of Nucleate Boiling of Binaries in a Vertical Thermosiphon Reboiler

Solid-Liquid Mass Transfer under Flow Boiling Condition

“…They stated that the limiting current value could not be measured under a boiling condition due to the intense local turbulence caused by the bubbles formed during boiling. Although the flow boiling phenomenon has been extensively studied in the field of heat transfer, [16][17][18] the traditional analysis between heat and mass transfer cannot be applied to the flow boiling condition due to the boundary layer discontinuity. 19 Also, the existing mass transfer correlation for a gas evolving electrode cannot be applied to a boiling electrode because the energy transfer on a boiling surface is different from the gas generation electrode.…”
