Departure from nucleate boiling

Yes, the topic "departure from nucleate boiling" is not nucleate boiling but rather transition or film boiling and should not be in this article. It is contradictory and should be moved. Venny85 (talk) 18:56, 25 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

It should stay here. It's not contradictory (nor was that what 76.1.37.196 was saying). The article is quite small and can easily cover the boiling regime past the CHF since it is related. Generally, it is mentioned in the same paragraph or in the same discussion as nucleate boiling. Many modern discussions and textbooks blur these lines and expound the fact that in flowing systems, there are often times in which both types of boiling are happening in close proximity, especially where local hot spots exist and localized flow turbulence cause different sized nucleates. Other factors held constant, channel size alone can determine essentially which regime a fluid is in.

So although the pretty graph is great for an entry-level understanding of heat flux, it lacks the benefit of engineering analysis of a real, dynamic system in which you cannot easily separate nucleate boiling from film boiling. I say keep these concepts in the same article. I like to saw logs! (talk) 05:27, 26 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
