1. Two different regimes may be distinguished in the nucleate boiling range. 2. Rohsenow has developed the first and most widely used correlation for nucleate boiling , 3. Transition boiling is the unstable transient region where nucleate boiling tends toward film boiling. 4. The nucleate boiling process has a complex nature. 5. Nucleate boiling phenomenon still requires more understanding.6. Heat transfer and mass transfer during nucleate boiling has a significant effect on the heat transfer rate. 7. This is " sub-cooled nucleate boiling ", and is a very efficient heat transfer mechanism. 8. The Leidenfrost Effect demonstrates how nucleate boiling slows heat transfer due to gas bubbles on the heater's surface. 9. Open cavities are defined as the regions formed between adjacent fins and stand for the essential promoters of nucleate boiling or condensation. 10. Specifically, MFLCPR represents how close the leading fuel bundle is to " dry-out " ( or " departure from nucleate boiling " for a PWR ).
