DNB is also known as transition boiling, unstable film boiling, and partial film boiling. For water boiling as shown on the graph, transition boiling occurs when the temperature difference between the surface and the boiling water is approximately 30 to 130 °C (54 to 234 °F) above the T S. This corresponds to the high peak and the low peak on ...
The two mechanisms that result in reaching CBT are: departure from nucleate boiling (DNB) and liquid film dryout. DNB. Departure from nucleate boiling (DNB) occurs in sub-cooled flows and bubbly flow regimes. DNB happens when many bubbles near the heated surface coalesce and impede the ability of local liquid to reach the surface.
Enthalpies of melting and boiling for pure elements versus temperatures of transition, demonstrating Trouton's rule. In thermodynamics, Trouton's rule states that the (molar) entropy of vaporization is almost the same value, about 10.5 in nondimesnional units, or 85–88 if expressed in units J/(K·mol), for various kinds of liquids at their boiling points.

Transition boiling is the unstable transient region where nucleate boiling tends toward film boiling. A water drop dancing on a hot frying pan is an example of film boiling. During film boiling a volume of insulating vapor separates the heated surface from the cooling fluid; this causes the temperature of the heated surface to increase ...
Thus, the liquid–liquid critical point in a two-component system must satisfy two conditions: the condition of the spinodal curve (the second derivative of the free energy with respect to concentration must equal zero), and the extremum condition (the third derivative of the free energy with respect to concentration must also equal zero or ...
Vaporization (or vapo(u)risation) of an element or compound is a phase transition from the liquid phase to vapor. [1] There are two types of vaporization: evaporation and boiling. Evaporation is a surface phenomenon, whereas boiling is a bulk phenomenon (a phenomenon in which the whole object or substance is involved in the process).

In thermodynamics, a critical line is the higher-dimensional equivalent of a critical point. [1] It is the locus of contiguous critical points in a phase diagram.These lines cannot occur for a single substance due to the phase rule, but they can be observed in systems with more variables, such as mixtures.
