Abstract
In order to predict the liquid film dryout, estimations of evaporation of liquid film, entrainment and deposition rates, are required. In this investigation, the liquid film flow rate was measured by using the liquid film extraction method, and droplet flow rate was also estimated under thermodynamic equilibrium assumption. The qualitative applicability of this method to the boiling condition was confirmed by the experimental results. Experimental results also showed the importance of the influence of the heating on the entrainment, especially under high heat-flux condition.
