Numerical simulation reveals key effects of Reynolds and Boiling numbers on heat transfer in water vapor flow.

Doubling the Reynolds number results in a 36% increase in mean heat transfer coefficient.
Boiling number increase by 60% leads to a 3% rise in mean heat transfer coefficient.
The study analyzes the hydrodynamic and heat transfer characteristics of boiling slug flow.
Nucleation sites play a crucial role in the formation of slug flow in vertical tubes.

Sharifi et al. (2025) studied this question.
