Pool boiling heat transfer experiments were performed by using the well-controlled/defined heat transfer surface for water. Uni-size and -shape artificial cavities were created on the mirror-finished silicon plate by utilizing the MEMS technology. Experimental results agreed well with what were predicted by the traditional boiling theory. It was confirmed experimentally that the bubble growth on the cavity and the departure were affected by neighboring cavities. The short and the long period between the departure to the successive departure alternately iterated. It suggested that the bubble departure affected by the preceding bubble and the departure not affected iterated alternately.
