Phanomena
the conditions at which the heat-transfer coefficient of the two-phase flow substantially deteriorates. it occurs at a sufficiently high heat flux or wall temperature. In a system in which the heat flux is independently controlled, the consequences of the CHF occurrence is the rapid rise in the wall temperature. For systems in which the wall temperature is independently controlled, the occurrence of CHF implies a rapid decrease in the heat flux.

This pool boiling CHF provides lower heat fluxes than does flow boiling, as the critical flux of the DNB-type increases with mass flow. This CHF mechanism (DNB) can occur for both saturated and subcooled liquid conditions. The nucleate boiling regime exists at low-quality flow conditions.

CHF at High Quality


At high quality flow conditions , the vapor mostly exists in the core. Both the shear action of the vapor and the local vaporization rate may lead to the liquid film being stripped from the wall.
