Leidenfrost temperature: its correlation for liquid metals, cryogens, hydrocarbons, and water

Description

A prediction technique for the Leidenfrost and minimum temperatures is presented which considers the effects of the critical temperature of the liquid, thermal properties of the solid, surface energy of the liquid, and surface energy of the solid. The prediction technique is in good agreement with data for liquid metals, cryogens, hydrocarbons, and water.
