Provides a comprehensive coverage of the basic phenomena. It contains twenty-five chapters which cover different aspects of boiling and condensation. First the specific topic or phenomenon is described, followed by a brief survey of previous work, a phenomenological model based on current understanding, and finally a set of recommended design equations or correlations. Detailed references are listed at the end of each chapter for further reading.

4.0 out of 5 stars
Flow regime based approach absent,
By A Customer
This review is from: Handbook of Phase Change: Boiling and Condensation (Hardcover)
The book is a good compilation, and probably the only up-to-date compiltion that includes authors from so many different research groups. The flow regime based approach was absent in the treatment of flow boiling and condensation. Excessive empiricism but not too much fundamental understanding of this topic.
