Critical temperature difference physical interpretations

It is always desirable to have physical interpretations of unusual phenomena. The existence of a critical temperature difference for nucleate boiling has challenged many thinkers. The easiest explanation occurs... [Pg.43]

The physical interpretation of this result is that, according to the conditions of pressure and temperature, the fluid to which the equation is applied can exist either in three states with different specific volumes at the same temperature and pressure, or else in only one state (imaginary roots having no physical significance). Case (ii.) corresponds to a gas heated above its critical temperature. In case (i.) the physical interpretation is that the smallest value of v corresponds to the liquid, the largest value of v corresponds to saturated vapour, and the intermediate value corresponds to an unstable state, all at the given temperature. [Pg.227]
