ABSTRACT
The current entropy generation rate study of spherical bubbles undergoing
growth in nucleate pool boiling produces a novel correlation for predicting bubble
departure radii. Two models for entropy generation rate in spherical bubbles are
developed by modeling the work performed by a bubble as that of a
thermodynamic system, and as a function of the net force acting on the bubble
and the rate of bubble grow. While the derived entropy generation rate equations
fail to support the hypothesis presented in this paper, one of the two models
leads to a novel correlation which predicts published experimental data within
15%.

INTRODUCTION
Previous Work
Bubble departure diameters in nucleate pool boiling have been studied
extensively both analytically and experimentally. In 1935, Fritz developed a
correlation for bubble departure diameter in nucleate boiling by balancing
buoyancy and surface tension forces for a static bubble (Fritz, 1935). This
equation has since been expanded by other investigators. Bubble growth rate
was included in a correlation by (Staniszewski, 1959) after observing that bubble
departure diameter is dependent on the rate at which the bubble grows. Others
have expanded the range of the Fritz correlation to low pressure systems such
as (Cole & Rohsenow, 1969), while (Kocamustafaogullari, 1983) have expanded
it to fit high pressure systems. More recently, (Gorenflo, Knabe, & Bieling, 1986)
established an improved correlation for bubble departure at high heat fluxes. A
summary of bubble departure correlations is provided in Table 1.

An evaluation of forces acting on bubbles forming
in normal and reduced gravitational fields was performed
by (Keshock & Siegel, 1964). Five forces acting on
bubbles during growth while attached to a wall were
identified as buoyancy, excess pressure, inertia, surface
tension and drag forces; each of which acts to keep the
bubble attached to the wall or to promote separation. The
buoyancy force accounts for the difference in liquid and
vapor densities. Density differences between the vapor in the bubble and liquid
of the fluid pool promote bubble departure. Buoyancy is aided by the excess
pressure force which accounts for the vapor pressure acting on the region of wall
within the bubble base diameter. This force aids in pushing the liquid vapor
interface away from the wall. The resulting equation for this force takes the same
form as that for surface tension.
Inertia, surface tension and drag forces work to limit bubble separation.
The inertia force is exerted as the surrounding fluid pool is forced to flow in a

radial direction away from the bubble boundary due to bubble growth. As the
fluid is displaced, its viscosity creates resistance to bubble growth. It can be
seen in the equations in Table 2 that the inertia force is scaled by a factor of
11/16. The scaling factor was proposed by (Han & Griffith, 1962) to approximate
mass of affected fluid around the outer surface of the bubble. The surface
tension force accounts for the force of the liquid vapor interface with the wall and
the drag force accounts for the motion of the growing bubble through the
surrounding liquid. These forces can be seen graphically in Figure 2 along wither
a list of their corresponding equations in Table 2.

Bubble separation occurs when buoyancy and excess pressure forces
exceed the net affects of the inertia, surface tension, and drag forces. The work
of (Keshock & Siegel, 1964) demonstrated that varying system conditions
produce varying levels of influence for each of the forces associated with bubble
departure.
While extensive research has led to the development a number of
correlations for bubble departure diameter, a universal correlation is lacking. It
can be seen by analysis of the correlations provided in the Table 1 that bubble
departure is a function of many variables including contact angle, bubble growth
rate, Jakob number, thermal diffusivity, system temperatures, pressures, and a
number of others. Additionally, while most correlations are proportionate to
πβ1 2 , it can be seen that departure diameters determined by the correlations of
(Zuber, 1959) and (Gorenflo, Knabe, & Bieling, 1986) are proportionate to πβ1 3 .
Development of a universal correlation will require a function of multiple system
and fluid properties which can be utilized to model a wide range of system
conditions.

Problem Statement
Is it possible to develop a correlation for bubble departure radius or
diameter in nucleate pool boiling by analyzing entropy generation rate during
bubble growth?
It is suspected that the rate entropy generation reaches a maximum value
at the point at which a bubble departs from a wall during nucleate pool boiling.
As demonstrated later in this paper, the entropy generation rate for a spherical
bubble in nucleate pool boiling is defined by the equation below.
π πππ = β1
ππ€πππ π + πΈ β
π
ππ‘ ππ
As the entropy generation rate reaches a maximum value, the sum of rate
of work performed by the bubble on its surroundings and the rate of change of
internal energy minus the rate of energy transfer to the bubble reaches a
minimum. It is believed that at this point, the bubble reaches a state of
equilibrium which results in departure or collapse in the case of sub-cooled
boiling. If this suspicion is correct, an entropy generation analysis of bubble
growth using the second law of thermodynamics may lead to a novel correlation
for determination of bubble departure radius.
Methodology
The maximum rate of entropy generation can be determined by taking the
derivative of entropy generation rate with respect to bubble radius and setting it
equal to zero. This method requires that the net heat transfer rate for the bubble
be substituted into the entropy generation equation. The proposed method is
7
accomplished by evaluation of the bubble using the first and second laws of
thermodynamics.
First Law of Thermodynamics
The first law of thermodynamics
states that energy must be conserved. By
analyzing the bubble using the first law of
thermodynamics, it is possible to determine
the rate of heat transfer. Heat transferred
to the bubble must result in changes to the
accumulated energy of the bubble, work
performed on the bubble boundary, and
energy flow at the bubble boundary. In the case of a bubble undergoing growth
at a wall, the net energy flows into the bubble. Energy flow out of the bubble is
therefore ignored. The resulting first law equation for a bubble reduces to the
following equation which can be seen graphically in Error! Reference source
not found..
π = π + πΈ β π
ππ‘ ππ
ππ
It is possible to determine the rate of heat transfer by determining the rate
of work performed, the change rate for the accumulated energy, and the rate of
net energy flow into the bubble. Given this value, it is then possible to solve for
entropy generation rate using the second law of thermodynamics.

Second Law of Thermodynamics
The second law of thermodynamics is a statement to the irreversibility of a
system. It states that entropy of a system not at equilibrium will increase with
time. For a system with open boundaries such as a bubble, entropy generation
rate is a function of the rate of entropy accumulation inside a control volume, the
entropy transfer rate, and net entropy flow rate at the boundaries of the control
volume. The second law of thermodynamics can be written as follows:
π πππ = π β ππ
πππ
β d

ππ
Given the heat transfer rate determined by the first law of
thermodynamics, it is possible to determine entropy generation rate using the
second law of thermodynamics.
General Assumptions
The following chapters cover the derivation of two novel correlations for
bubble departure radius in nucleate pool boiling. These derivations will be made
based on the assumptions listed below.
Bubble maintains spherical shape during growth.
State of vapor flowing into the bubble is at the same state as vapor
accumulated within the bubble.
The state of the fluid pool is constant and uniform with no thermal
boundary layer around bubble surface or wall.
9
Bubble radius can be accurately modeled by the (Mikic, Rohsenow, &
Griffith, 1970) (MRG) correlation during both inertia and heat-diffuse
stages of bubble growth.
Quasi equilibrium
Additional assumptions will be introduced throughout the derivation of the
correlations for the purpose of simplifying equations.
Vapor pressure is constant and equal to the saturation pressure of the
bulk liquid pool.
10
ENTROPY GENERATION RATE STUDY (PRESSURE-VOLUME METHOD)
A novel correlation is derived for bubble departure radius using the second
law of thermodynamics. In this chapter, work performed by the bubble is
modeled as the integral of the system pressure multiplied by the rate of change
in bubble volume. All steps of the following work are shown in Appendix A.
Derivation of Heat Transfer Rate
Solution of the second law of thermodynamics requires an understanding
of the heat transfer rate for the system. This is accomplished by solving the first
law of thermodynamics. Equations will be derived for the rate of work performed
by a bubble, the energy change rate, and the energy transfer rate.
Rate or Work
In this chapter, the rate of work performed by a bubble is modeled using
the equation for work done by a thermodynamic system. This equation is a
function of the driving pressure and the change in system volume.
π = ππππ2
π1
For a bubble undergoing growth in a pool, the driving pressure is
equivalent to the difference between vapor pressure within the bubble and the
interface pressure of the fluid surrounding the bubble. For the purposes of this
investigation, the interface pressure is assumed equivalent to the bulk fluid
pressure. Furthermore, the bubble is assumed to maintain a spherical shape
11
which allows for the change in volume to be replaced by the following
relationship.
ππ = 4ππ 2ππ
Application of these relationships leads to the following equation for work
performed by the bubble on the surrounding fluid.
π = 4π ππ£ β πβ π 2ππ
π
π.
In the above equation, vapor pressure is a function of bubble radius.
Successive integration by parts is therefore required to solve for the work done
by a bubble on its surroundings. The resulting equation is shown below.

The rate at which work is done by a bubble on its surrounding is
determined by taking the derivative of the above equation with respect to time.
Doing so results in the following relationship.

It can be seen in the equation above that the rate of work performed by a
spherical bubble is a function of the rate of bubble growth and the rate at which
vapor pressure changes. It is possible to reduce this equation to a function of
constant fluid properties and bubble growth rate by utilization of the Young-
Laplace equation or the equation of motion for a spherical bubble.

For the purposes of this derivation, the rate of work performed by a bubble
will be maintained as a function of the rate of bubble growth and rate of vapor
pressure change.
If vapor pressure is assumed constant and equivalent to the saturation
pressure of the bulk liquid pool through the life of the bubble, the equation can be
reduced to the following.
π β 4π ππ ππ‘ πβ β πβ π π 2
This assumption will not accurately model the rate of work performed by a
bubble growth within the inertia controlled region as this region is characterized
by rapidly changing vapor pressures. However, it is believed to be an acceptable
model for bubbles undergoing growth in the heat diffuse region in which the rate
of vapor pressure change is minimal.
Energy Change Rate
The Internal energy of a system is a measure of its total kinetic and
potential energy. In the case of a bubble, internal energy can be determined by
multiplying bubble vapor mass by the energy per unit mass at a given state.

If the state of the vapor within the bubble is again assumed constant and

Energy Transfer Rate
The energy transfer across the bubble boundary is defined as derivative
with respect to time of the total vapor mass flowing across the boundary
14
multiplied by the enthalpy per unit mass of the transferred vapor. For the
purposes of this analysis, the state of the vapor entering the bubble is assumed
to equivalent to that of the vapor within the bubble. This implies that enthalpy of
the vapor flowing in is the same as the enthalpy of the vapor in the bubble.

Substitution of the above equation and its derivatives allows the heat
transfer rate equation for a spherical bubble to be reduced.
π = β4ππβπ 2π
It is noted that this solution is identical to the solution derived by applying
the assumption of constant vapor pressure. The rate of heat transfer for a
spherical bubble is a function of bulk pressure and radial growth behavior of the
16
bubble. The assumption that vapor pressure is constant is acceptable for
determination of heat transfer rate. However, the rate at which vapor pressure
changes may still have a significant influence on the rate of work, rate of
accumulated energy, and rate of energy transfer for a spherical bubble
undergoing growth in the inertia controlled region.
Derivation of Entropy Generation Rate
With heat transfer rate defined, it is possible to determine the rate of
entropy generation. Like determination of heat transfer rate, this requires
relationships for the rate of entropy accumulation, entropy transfer rate, and the
net entropy flow rate.
Entropy Accumulation Rate
Entropy accumulation rate within the bubble is determined by taking the
derivative of the total entropy accumulated with respect to time.

Since the state of the vapor flowing into the bubble is assumed to be

Entropy Generation Rate
The rate of entropy generation is determined by substitution of the derived
equations into the second law of thermodynamics. As it was previously noted,
the net entropy flow rate and the entropy transfer rate are equivalent and
therefore cancel. The resulting entropy generation rate equation is a function of
only the heat transfer rate.

By utilization of substitution methods, it can be shown that the general
solution to the second order, non-linear differential equation takes the following
form.
19
π ππππ‘ = β3πβ2πΆπ‘ + 3π· 1 3
For this solution to be useful, variables πΆ and π· must be defined. This
requires the application of two boundary conditions. The first boundary condition
can be determined by evaluation of experimental data for bubble departure radii.
Comparison of the rate of change for both the general solution and the
experimental bubble at departure can be used to satisfy the second boundary
condition.
Analysis of Second Order, Non-Linear Differential Equation
Analysis of the second order, non-linear differential equation requires an
understanding of growth behavior of bubbles during pool boiling. Bubble
behavior has been described by a number of researchers including (Rayleigh,
1917), (Plesset & Zwick, 1954), and (Mikic, Rohsenow, & Griffith, 1970). In the
following sections, the equations derived by these researches will be utilized to
solve the second order, non-linear differential equation.
Experimental data published by (Van Stralen, Cole, Sluyter, & Sohal,
1975) for bubbles undergoing growth in superheated water at sub-atmospheric
pressures will be utilized for comparison and refinement of the second order,
non-linear differential equation. Application of the equations for bubble growth
requires an understanding of both fluid and vapor properties. For the purposes
of this analysis, bulk liquid pool properties are assumed uniform and constant,
and effects of thermal boundary layers and the liquid-vapor interface are ignored.
Furthermore, the state of vapor within the bubble may be estimated by utilizing
20
the saturation point of the bulk liquid pressure. While the vapor pressure within a
bubble is highly dynamic, it approaches the bulk liquid pressure as growth
transitions from an inertia controlled region to heat diffuse region. As described
by (Lien, 1969), the following liquid properties will be utilized to solve for the
Jakob number of the system as well as additional system constants for use in the
growth equations.
Thermal Conductivity of Liquid Saturated liquid at πβ
Surface Tension of Liquid Saturated liquid at πβ
Specific Heat of Liquid Saturated liquid at πβ
Density of Liquid Saturated liquid at πβ
Latent Heat of Vaporization Saturated liquid at πβ
Density of Vapor Saturated liquid at πβ

The liquid and vapor properties listed above will be determined by
utilization of equations defined by the International Association for the Properties
of Water and Steam (Revised release on the IAPWS Industrial Formulation of
1997 for the thermodynamic properties of water and steam, 2007) (IAPWS
release on surface tension of ordinary water substance, 1994)
Analysis Using Rayleigh Equation
Bubble growth is defined by two distinct regions. Initial bubble growth is
described as inertia controlled growth in which high internal pressures produce
rapid growth of the bubble. Growth in this region is limited by the amount of
21
momentum available to displace the surrounding fluid. As internal pressures
drop and the effect of inertia becomes negligible, bubbles transition to heat
diffuse growth in which bubble growth is driven primarily by heat transfer.
Correlations have been developed for each of these regions to describe the
bubbles growth characteristics.
In 1917, Rayleigh derived an equation of motion for the flow of and
incompressible fluid around spherical bubble. The equation takes the following
form.

Utilization of the bubble growth equations defined above, the second
order, non-linear differential equation derived in the section above may be solved
by direction substitution. If the hypothesis that entropy generation reaches a
maximum value at the point of bubble departure, the solution to the equation
bellow describes the departure radius for a bubble undergoing pool boiling on a
wall.
π π + 2π 2 = 0
Substitution of the Rayleigh equations into the equation above produces
the following relationship.
2π΄2 = 0
By observation, it can be seen that the above equation is invalid for any
non-zero value of π΄. Furthermore, the equation is not a function of bubble radius.
Substitution of the Rayleigh equation into the second order, non-linear differential
equation does not produce a departure radius for a spherical bubble.
While direct substitution of the Rayleigh equation and it derivative into the
second order, non-linear differential equation does not produce a departure
radius, utilization of the general solution may provide improved results. Earlier in
23
this chapter a general solution was determined for the derived second order,
non-linear differential equation. This general solution takes the following form.

Utilization of the general solution requires that constants πΆ and π· be
determined. This is accomplished by applying boundary conditions. For the
purposes of this analysis the boundary conditions will be defined at the time of
bubble departure. At departure, the radius defined by the Rayleigh equation will
be set equal to the radius defined by the general solution. Additionally, the slope
of both equations will be assumed perpendicular at this time.

Analysis of the table indicates that predicted departure radii fail to
consistently fit with experimental data. This is seen graphically in Figure 4 and
Figure 5.

Figure 5. Error Plot of Predicted Departure Radii from Rayleigh Based Equation.
The large error associated with predicted bubble departure radii is
associated with the average values of constants πΆ and π·. Results are improved
by modifying constants πΆ and π· to be functions of system values π΄ and/or π½π.
While values πΆ and π· are now variable from system to system, they are constant
for a given a given boiling condition. By comparison of the calculated values of πΆ
presented in Table 3 with system constant π΄, it is determined that πΆ is
approximated by the following equation.
πΆ = 7.459635ππ(π΄) + 2.607226
This equation fits the values of πΆ presented in Table 3 with a π 2 value of
0.9579. Comparison of the constant πΆ with Jakob numbers for the experimental
29
systems fails to produce a satisfactory curve fit. The modified values of
calculated constant πΆ are now used to calculate modified values for constant π·.
By again comparing the modified values of constant π· with system values
π΄ and π½π, a relationship is determined. Constant π· is best estimated with a π 2
value of 0.9971 by the following equation.
π· = 2.278040 β11 π½π2 + 6.485067πΈ β09 π½π β 3.367751πΈ(β07)
Comparison of constant π· with constant π΄ fails to create an equally good
curve fit.
The derived equations for constants πΆ and π· are substituted into the
general solution to create a new correlation. The modified general solution takes
the following form.
π = β3πβ 7.459635 ππ (π΄)+2.607226 π‘ + 2.278040 β11 π½π2 + 6.485067πΈ β09 π½π

By setting this equation equivalent to the Rayleigh equation, the following

π΄ and π½π defined in the Rayleigh equation. Analysis of experimental data from
(Van Stralen, Cole, Sluyter, & Sohal, 1975) using the modified general solution is

The departure radii predicted using the Rayleigh based modified general

greater than 100, experimental departure radii are predicted within 15% results
obtained experimentally. Results improve as the Jakob number for the system
grows.
Analysis Using Plesset-Zwick Equation
The previous section evaluated the use of the Rayleigh solution to provide
a departure radius for a bubble growing on a wall in pool boiling. It was noted
33
that the Rayleigh equation is only effective for modeling bubble growth occurring
within the inertia controlled growth region. To better understand the growth
behavior of a bubble, another equation is required.
In 1954, Plesset and Zwick developed an equation to describe bubble
growth occurring in the heat diffuse region. The derived equation is a function of
the Jakob number of the system and the thermal diffusivity of the surrounding
liquid.

By observation, it is seen that there are only two possible solutions to the

must be a non-zero value for the Plesset-Zwick equation to model bubble growth.
This implies that bubble departure will only occur at a time equal to infinity.
Substitution of the Plesset-Zwick equation into the derived second order, non-
linear differential equation is not a suitable method for determining the radius of a
bubble at departure. Furthermore, it indicates that the suspicion that entropy
generation reaches a maximum value at bubble departure may be invalid. This
is confirmed by plotting the calculated entropy generation rate against the bubble
radius for on experimental data set from (Van Stralen, Cole, Sluyter, & Sohal,
1975).

Figure 8. Entropy Generation Rate vs. Bubble Radius for Experimental Data Obtained from (Van Stralen, Cole, Sluyter, & Sohal, 1975) (A=1.924969, B=0.267915).
As seen in Figure 8, the calculated entropy generation rate does not reach
a maximum value. This failure to reach a maximum entropy generation rate may
be associated with the inability to effectively model bubble radius and vapor
properties within the bubble.
While direct substitution fails to produce a reasonable solution and
identifies a failure of the calculated entropy generation rate to reach a maximum
value, utilization of the Plesset-Zwick equation to solve general solution to the
second order, non-linear differential equation may result in a correlation which
predicts departure radii of bubbles undergoing nucleate pool boiling. As
previously shown, the general solution takes the following form.

Utilization of the general solution requires that constants πΆ and π· be
solved. This is accomplished by applying boundary conditions. For the purposes
of this analysis the boundary conditions are defined at the time of bubble
departure. At departure, the radius defined by the Plesset-Zwick equation is set
equal to the radius defined by the general solution. Additionally, the slope of
both equations is assumed perpendicular at this time.

By substation of the appropriate equations into the boundary conditions

arranged to solve for the constant πΆ.

The time at departure is replaced using the Plesset-Zwick equation.

The predicted radii from the general solution derived using the Plesset-
Zwick equation is an improved fit with experimental data when compared to
predicted values obtained using the averaged constants version of the Rayleigh
based equation. This is seen graphically in Figure 9 and Figure 10.

Figure 10. Error Plot of Predicted Departure Radii using Plesset-Zwick Based Equation.
While the predicted departure radii are a better fit with experimental data,
an improved fit will be achieved solving for constants πΆ and π· and functions of
system properties. Like the solution derived using the Rayleigh equation, error is
introduced by determined constants πΆ and π· to be averages over a range of
experimental data points. Results are improved by comparison of values for
constant πΆ with system properties π΄, π΅, and the Jakob number. Doing so leads
to the following relationship for constant πΆ.
πΆ = β0.894132 ππ π΅ + 4.010944
This equation is a poor fit with values of πΆ presented in Table 7 with a π 2
value of 0.2758. However new values of constant π· will be calculated and
42
compensate for the error in this curve fit. By again comparing the modified
values of constant π· with system values π΄, π΅ , and Jakob number, a relationship
is determined. Constant π· is estimated with a π 2 value of 0.9832 by use of the
following equation.
π· = 4.127304 β03 ππ₯π1.036544βπ΄
The derived equations for constants πΆ and π· are substituted into the
general solution to create a new relationship. The modified general solution
takes the following form.
π = β3πβ β0.894132 ππ π΅ +4.010944 π‘ + 4.127304 β03 ππ₯π1.036544βπ΄ 1 3

value π΄ defined in the Rayleigh equation and the system value π΅ defined in the
Plesset-Zwick equation. Analysis of experimental data from (Van Stralen, Cole,

It is seen that the Plesset-Zwick based modified general solution shows

experimental values for the full range of Jakob numbers.
Analysis Using MRG Equation
The Rayleigh and Plesset-Zwick equations describe growth of a bubble in
specific regions. However, neither equation fully describes the growth of bubble
throughout all regions including the transition region from inertia controlled
growth to heat-diffuse controlled growth.
46
In 1970, Mikic, Rohsenow, and Griffith (MRG) developed an equation
which spans all regions of growth. This was accomplished by writing both the
Rayleigh and Plesset-Zwick equations in terms of ππ£βππ ππ‘
βπ. They solved for this
term by rearranging the Plesset-Zwick equation and substituted into the Rayleigh
equation. The result was an equation which describes the growth through all
regions for a bubble growing either on a wall or in an infinite body of liquid. This
resulting dimensionless equation is a function of the variable π΄ introduced in the
Rayleigh equation, the variable π΅ introduced in the Plesset-Zwick equation,
dimensionless waiting time, and a scaling factor π which relates the wall
superheat to the pool superheat.

By observation, it is seen that a solution to the equation above is not
easily achieved. Plotting the left side of the equation above shows that this
relationship only holds true at π‘ππππ‘ = β. This departure time is not feasible
solution to the problem as it implies that the radius of departure is infinitely large.
A plot of the value of the left side of the equation above (defined as residual)
48
versus time is provided in Figure 13 for a set of experimental data obtained from
(Van Stralen, Cole, Sluyter, & Sohal, 1975).

As shown above, direct substitution of the MRG equation and its
derivatives into the second order, non-linear differential equation fails to produce
a predicted departure radius. Additionally, it further supports that fact that the
calculated entropy generation rate fails to reach a maximum value.
While the analysis above is further evidence that the derived entropy
generation rate equation fails to reach a maximum value, utilization of the MRG
equation in the general solution may still produce a bubble departure radius
correlation. It was shown in earlier in this chapter that a general solution exists
49
for the second order, non-linear differential equation. This general solution takes
the following form.
π = β3πβπΆπ‘ + π· 1 3
The derivative of the general solution takes the following form.
ππ
ππ‘= βπβπΆ β3πβπΆπ‘ + π· β1 3
Solution of the general solution requires that constants πΆ and π· be solved.
This is accomplished by applying boundary conditions. For the purposes of this
analysis the boundary conditions are defined at the time of bubble departure. At
the time, the radius defined by the MRG equation is set equal to the radius
defined by the general solution. Additionally, the slope of both equations is
assumed perpendicular at this time.

Unlike the analysis using the Rayleigh and Plesset-Zwick equation, the

It is seen in that table above that the general solution derived using the
MRG equation predicts bubble departure radii within 30% for Jakob numbers
greater than 100. This is seen graphically in Figure 14.

While the predicted departure radii represent a reasonable prediction of
experimental data, results can be further improved. Like with results obtained
using the Rayleigh and Plesset-Zwick equations, solving for constants πΆ and π·
as functions of constant system variables will improve results. Forcing constants
πΆ and π· to be functions of system values such as π΄, π΅, or the Jakob number will
further improve results.
Analysis of the values for πΆ in Table 11 indicate a relationship with system
constant π΄. Constant πΆ is estimated with a π 2 value of 0.9498 by the following
equation.
πΆ = 5.814845πΈ β02 π΄2 + 8.891619πΈ(β01)π΄ + 3.399097
56
The improved value for πΆ is used to generate new values for constant π·.
The new values of D are again compared to the system constants π΄, π΅, and π½π.
Analysis indicates that the constant D is modeled with a π 2 value of 0.9943 by
the following equation.

As shown above, the MRG based modified general solution has improved
predicted departure radii for bubbles with higher Jakob numbers when compared
with experimental data of (Van Stralen, Cole, Sluyter, & Sohal, 1975). The
predicted departure radii fit experimental data within 30% for systems is a Jakob

Comparison of the models generated in this chapter indicates that the
general solution to the second order, non-linear differential equation is capable of

growing in sub atmospheric pressure water is utilized. This data set differs from
that of (Van Stralen, Cole, Sluyter, & Sohal, 1975) in that the fluid temperature is
maintained at saturation temperature rather than superheated temperatures.

Evaluation of the data indicates that the equation derived for departure
radii is capable of estimated experimental departure radii within approximately
50% for system undergoing boiling at saturated conditions.
Further analysis of the equation is performed by comparison with
experimental data of (Ellion, 1954) for bubbles undergoing growth in sub cooled
water at atmospheric pressure. The experimental data utilized for this analysis
represents the average maximum radii reached during sub cooled boiling at
specific system conditions. These predicted radii vary from departure radii in that
the bubbles do not depart from the heating surface. Rather the bubbles reach a
maximum radius at which point they begin to collapse.

Summary
A novel correlation for bubble departure radii is derived by performing an
entropy generation study on a spherical bubble undergoing nucleate pool boiling.
The entropy generation study results in a second order, non-linear differential
which is described by a general solution. This is achieved by modeling the rate
65
of work performed by the bubble as that of a thermodynamic system. Rayleigh,
Plesset-Zwick, and MRG equations for bubble growth are utilized to solve the
second order, non-linear differential equation and its general solution.
Direct substitution of the three equations into the differential equation is
unsuccessful in producing predicted departure radii. Furthermore, results of this
analysis, along with analysis of the derived entropy generation rate equation
shown below, indicates that calculated entropy generation rates do not reach a
maximum value.

Utilization of the Rayleigh, Plesset-Zwick, and MRG equations to
solve for the constants πΆ and π· of the general solution results in varying ability to
predict departure radii. Most accurate predicted departure radii are achieved by
utilization of the Plesset-Zwick equation. The resulting equation is presented
below.

Further analysis of additional experimental data fails to reproduce the
same level of accuracy achieved for superheated boiling. The inability to
accurately predict departure radii for these data sets is likely associated with the
inability of accurately consider all system properties in the derived equation.
Evaluation of the equation above indicates that it is not a function of all variables
commonly associated with bubble departure correlations including gravity,
contact, angle, water superheat and many others. Each of the data sets utilized
66
for the analysis have been obtained at various levels of liquid superheat. This
distinction is not accounted for in the derived equation. Furthermore, the derived
equation relies on constant values which have been obtained by evaluation of
experimental data of (Van Stralen, Cole, Sluyter, & Sohal, 1975). As a result, the
equation is biased towards accurately predicting departure radii from this set of
experimental data.
While the derived correlation does not consider all variables commonly
associated with bubble departure, the correlation and the method utilized to
derive it are valuable. Utilizing the methods presented in this chapter, the
correlation above can be adapted to more accurately predict departure radii for a
given heater system. This ability allows for the prediction of bubble departure
radii within this given system at operating conditions other than those specifically
tested.
67
ENTROPY GENERATION RATE STUDY (NET FORCE METHOD)
In Chapter 2, an entropy generation rate study was performed by
modeling the work performed by the bubble as that of a thermodynamic system.
While the resulting equating fails to read a maximum value, it derivative led to a
correlation for bubble departure radii for bubbles undergoing growth on a wall
during nucleate pool boiling. It has been shown that the resulting correlation is
capable of predicting departure radii within 15% of experimental data of (Van
Stralen, Cole, Sluyter, & Sohal, 1975) but is less capable of predicting
experimental data sets for bubble growing in saturated and sub-cooling boiling.
In this chapter, a novel correlation for bubble departure radius is determined
using the second law of thermodynamics. The rate of work performed by the
bubble on its surrounding will be calculated using the net force acting on a
bubble during growth on a wall. All steps of the following work are shown in
Appendix C.
Derivation of Heat Transfer Rate
Determination of the heat transfer rate requires relationships for the rate of
work performed by a bubble, the rate of energy accumulation within the bubble,
and the rate at which energy is transferred across the bubble boundary.
Rate or Work
In this section rate of work performed by the bubble is modeled as a
function of the net forces acting on it. It is assumed that the net force acting on
68
the bubble results in purely radial growth of the bubble. In this case, the total
work done by a bubble is determined by integrating the product of the net force
acting on the bubble and the rate of radial growth of the bubble.
π = πΉπππ‘ ππ π
π
As the net force is a function of bubble radius, the total work performed is
solved by performing successive integration by parts of the equation above.
Doing so results in the following equation.

If the influence of the net force derivatives is neglected, the equation for
work rate is reduced to the first term of the equation above.
π = πΉπππ‘π
Solution of the rate of work equation requires a definition for net force.
The net force acting on a bubble is modeled by evaluation of the forces
described by (Keshock & Siegel, 1964).
πΉπππ‘ = πΉπ + πΉπ β πΉπ β πΉπ β πΉπ·

Table 2) into the equation leads to the following.

It is noted that the equations for excess pressure, surface tension, and the
term representing sum of the two forces are functions of the bubble base radius.
Since this value may not be known or modeled, it is suggested that a
dimensionless scaling factor ππ be introduced.
ππ =π π
π sinπ½
The proposed dimensionless scaling
factor is a ratio of the bubble base radius,
bubble radius, and contact angle. Each of
these dimensions is seen graphically in Figure
20. This dimensionless scaling factor allows
for the excess pressure, surface tensions, and
their sum to be calculated in terms of the
bubble radius, allowing for consistency of
variables throughout the model.
While this scaling term requires the bubble base radius to calculate, it may
be approximated by evaluation of previous bubble departure diameter
correlations. For the sake of simplicity, the Fritz equation is utilized for
demonstration.

are provided in Table 17.

Unlike the equation derived in Chapter 2, the equations for heat transfer
derived using the net force method are functions of bubble radius, net force, and
vapor pressure.
Derivation of Entropy Generation Rate
With heat transfer rate defined, it is possible to determine the rate of
entropy generation. Like determination of heat transfer rate, this requires
relationships for the rate of entropy accumulation, entropy transfer rate, and the
net entropy flow rate.
Entropy Accumulation Rate
The entropy accumulation rate for a spherical bubble is determined the
same way as described in Chapter 2. The resulting equation for the rate of
entropy accumulation is as follows.

Net Entropy Flow Rate
Since the state of the vapor flowing into the bubble is assumed to be
equivalent to the state of the vapor accumulated within the bubble, the equation
for net entropy flow rate takes the same form as that derived for the entropy
change rate.
Entropy Generation Rate
The rate of entropy generation is determined by substitution of the
equations derived above in the second law of thermodynamics. As noted in
Chapter 2, the influence of the rate of entropy accumulation is canceled by the
influence of the rate of entropy transfer at the bubble boundary.

pressure is assumed constant, the rate of heat transfer is simplified.

(Keshock & Siegel, 1964) by implying that departure of a bubble undergoing
nucleate pool boiling on a wall occurs at a value other than 0.
Both the full equation and the simplified equations must be solved
numerically by substitution of relationships for net force and vapor pressure. The
net force has already been defined in this chapter. A relationship for vapor
pressure was introduced in Chapter 2. Both equations and their first five

Analysis of Net Force Correlation
Two equations have been derived for predicting departure radii by
modeling the work performed with the net force acting on the bubble. The
equations derived are based on the following sets of assumptions.
Constant vapor pressure and negligible net force derivatives
Vapor pressure and net force derivatives considered
Solution of each equation requires a model for the growth behavior of a
bubble in nucleate pool boiling. For this analysis, the MRG equation derived by
(Mikic, Rohsenow, & Griffith, 1970) is utilized as it accurately models bubbles
81
growing in both the inertia and heat-diffuse regions. This equation and its
derivatives are listed in Table 20.

Constant Vapor Pressure and Negligible Net Force Derivatives

In the equation above, net force is now a function of the rate of change of
vapor properties and the vapor pressure now varies with bubble size. As with the
simplified equation, the equation above must be solved numerically.
Numerical analysis of the equation above indicates that it is also unable to
predict departure radii of experimental data.

Summary
An equation for entropy generation rate is derived by studying the rate of
entropy generation for a bubble undergoing nucleate pool boiling. In the
derivation of this equation, work has been modeled as a function of the net forces
acting on the bubble and the rate at which the bubble grows. A derivative of the
derived equation was taken in an attempt to solve for a departure radii. Attempts
to do so were unsuccessful and it has been confirmed that the derived entropy
generation rate equation does not reach a maximum value.

CONCLUSIONS
Entropy generation studies of spherical bubbles undergoing growth in
nucleate pool boiling have resulted in a novel correlation for bubble departure
radii.
Two equations for entropy generation rate have been derived for spherical
bubbles undergoing growth on a wall in nucleate pool boiling. These equations
have been derived by modeling the work performed by the bubble as that of a
thermodynamic system, and as a function of the net forces acting on the bubble
and the rate at which the bubble grows.
When work performed by a spherical bubble is modeled using the
equation for a thermodynamic system, the entropy generation rate takes the
following form.
π πππ =4π
ππ€ππππβπ
2π
The derivative of the above equation results in a separable second order,
non-linear differential equation. Evaluation of this equation indicates that direct
substitution of the Rayleigh, Plesset-Zwick, and MRG equations fails to predict
departure radii for bubbles undergoing growth in nucleate pool boiling. Further
investigation indicates that this is caused by failure of the calculated entropy
generation rate to reach a maximum value.
Analysis of the general solution to the second order, non-linear differential
equation produces a novel correlation for predicting departure radii. By setting
the general solution of the differential equation equivalent to the Plesset-Zwick
87
equation for bubble growth, a third order equation is derived which allows for the
prediction of bubble departure radii.

The real, non-negative solution to the above equation estimates the
departure radius of a spherical bubble undergoing growth in nucleate pool
boiling. Predicted departure radii derived using this equation compare well with
data of (Van Stralen, Cole, Sluyter, & Sohal, 1975) but is less capable of
predicting experimental data of (Cole & Shulman, 1966b) and (Ellion, 1954) for
systems undergoing saturated and sub-cooled boiling. The ability to accurately
predict experimental departure data of (Van Stralen, Cole, Sluyter, & Sohal,
1975) can be attributed that the method by which the equation is derived.
Modeling the work performed by a bubble as the integral of the product of
the net force acting on the bubble and the rate of growth of the bubble produces
a complex equation for entropy generation rate.

The derivative of the above equation and a reduced form of it fail to result
in predicted departure radii for experimental data. Analysis of the equation
88
above and its simplified form indicate that both fail to reach a maximum value at
bubble departure.
The failure of both entropy generation rate equations to reach a maximum
value may be associated with the equation(s) utilized to model the growth of the
bubble. The Rayleigh, Plesset-Zwick, and MRG equations are intended to
approximate the growth a bubble through specific regions of growth, or in the
case of the MRG equation, through the life of the bubble. Analysis of all
equations indicates that each will model the growth of the bubble to an infinitely
large radius. This is not representative of real bubbles which reach a maximum
radius at, or near, departure prior to shrinking. The utilization of these equations
in the development of an entropy generation rate model likely introduces some
level of error near the point of departure.
Furthermore, the equations derived for heat transfer rate indicates that
heat transfer rate is always positive and growing. This cannot be true for a
bubble departing from a heated surface. In this case, the heat is supplied to the
bubble by means of a superheated surface and, potentially, a superheated liquid.
Once the temperature within the bubble exceeds the temperature of the liquid,
thermal energy is only transferred to the bubble by the wall. At the point of
bubble departure, this heat transfer rate disappears, or is greatly diminishes.
This is not consistent with results of the derived equation.
The findings of this entropy generation study do not disprove the
hypothesis. However, they do indicate that the derived equations for entropy
generation rate do not accurately demonstrate the behavior of bubbles at, or
89
near, the point of bubble departure. The development of improved entropy
generation rate models may lead to additional novel correlations for the
prediction of bubble departure radii.

Rearranging the equation results in the following equation for π .
π = 3πβπΆπ‘ + π· 1 3
The following solution also works.

APPENDIX B: DEFINING THE GENERAL SOLUTION
The general solution derived for the second order, non-linear differential
equation is fully defined by utilization of the Rayleigh, Plesset-Zwick, and MRG
Equations.
π = β3πβπΆπ‘ + π· 1 3
The derivative of the general solution takes the following form.
ππ
ππ‘= βπβπΆ β3πβπΆπ‘ + π· β1 3
For the Rayleigh solution, boundary conditions will be defined as follows.

By substitution of the appropriate equations into the boundary conditions
defined above, the following system of equation is created.
π΄π‘ππππ‘ = β3πβπΆπ‘ππππ‘ + π· 1 3
π΄ = ππΆ β3πβπΆπ‘ππππ‘ + π· 2 3
Both equations are rearranged to define constant π·.
π· = π΄3π‘ππππ‘3 + 3πβπΆπ‘ππππ‘
π· = π΄πβπΆ 3 2 + 3πβπΆπ‘ππππ‘
By setting the two equations equal to each other, the constant π· is
eliminated.
π΄3π‘ππππ‘3 = π΄πβπΆ 3 2
Rearranging the equation allows for the solution of constant πΆ.
