Abstract
Following a review of the significance of sliding bubble effects in bo iling heat transfer, an analytic model is described which allows the t hickness of the liquid film between a bubble and a wall to be estimate d. Experiments using an optical technique of film thickness measuremen t are described and the results compared with predictions obtained fro m the model.
