The objective of the project is to develop a two-dimensional                    mathematical model for nucleate pool boiling from a single nucleation           site.  The conservation equations of mass, momentum, and energy--along          with appropriate boundary and initial conditions--will be formulated            for this boiling problem.  The resulting system of simultaneous                 equations will be solved in dimensionless form on a computer by using a         finite difference method and an accelerated coordinate system which             follows the bubble as it detaches from the nucleation site.  The                resulting solutions may then be compared with the large body of                 experimental results presently available in the boiling heat transfer           literature.  Consequently, assumptions about the fundamental physics of         boiling found in different boiling models can be verified or disproven.         The importance of structures such as the microlayer can be                      investigated.  Parametric studies which are difficult, if not                   impossible, to do experimentally may be carried out.  A study on the            effects of parameters such as liquid subcooling, surface superheating,          or gravity is possible.
