... heat fluxes ranging from 28 to 445 W ∕ cm 2 and mass fluxes from 41 to 302 kg ∕ m 2 s . A map is developed that divides the data into two regions where the heat transfer mechanisms are nucleation or convective boiling dominant. The map is compared to similar atmospheric exit pressure data developed...
