Nonequilibrium models taking into account superheating normally reflect experimental results. Since incipient boiling of liquid metals under convective flow conditions is an area of current research, some uncertainty is involved in the calculation model formulation relating nucleation to superheat. Variables that appear to affect superheat behavior include the heat flux, nature of the heating surface, fluid velocity, and physical properties (75). As a result, it is often useful to consider the superheat as a parameter of the study.
