Abstract Recent research progress in the area of nano/micro scale nucleate boiling is reviewed and an up-to-date summary is provided with a focus on the
advances of fundamental boiling physics. This review examines nano/micro scale pool boiling experimental and theoretical/numerical work reported
in the open literature. On the experimental side, the topics covered are moving contact line, critical heat flux, boiling curve, nucleation, single bubble
boiling cycle, bubble coalescence boiling cycle, heater size effect, nanofluid, and nanoscale-structured heater surface. For the theoretical/numerical
work, continuum mechanics modeling of the micro-region and molecular dynamics modeling of the nano-region More >
