Fundamentals of microlayer evaporation and its role on boiling heat transfer enhancement
… of a single bubble, which involves a microlayer. The microlayer is a thin film present at the bubble base and varies from nano-scale to micro-scale in thickness. The dynamics of the microlayer dictates bubble growth and departure, making it of significant importance in understanding …

Investigation of the pool boiling heat transfer enhancement of nano-engineered fluids by means of high-speed infrared thermography
… contribution of the superheated liquid layer and microlayer evaporation to bubble growth. Deterioration in nucleate boiling heat transfer of water-based nanofluids was observed. It was determined that a reduction in the static contact angle, caused by nanoparticle deposition on the surface during …

Modeling and simulation of liquid microlayer formation and evaporation in nucleate boiling using computational fluid dynamics
… and trap a thin liquid layer - referred to as microlayer, underneath the growing bubble. The contribution of microlayer evaporation to overall heat transfer and bubble growth can be large, in particular in the case of water1. In practice, numerical simulations of nucleate boiling resolve the …
