Abstract
The connection between the behavior of coalescent bubble generated from local heated upper wall and boiling characteristics in an inclined channel with rectangular cross section was studied experimentally and analytically. The channel was submerged at an inclination angle θ from horizontal (2・≦θ≦20・) in saturated water. The height of the channel H (3≦H≦7mm)and the heat flux were changed. The analytical model of bubble behavior was constructed and the method for prediction of the heat flux at the occurrence of burnout was proposed.
