Previous studies on boiling heat transfer by impinging jets are mainly concerned with the impinging point by using small heat transfer surfaces of about 20 mm. An experimental study of the boiling heat transfer to an impinging water jet on a massive hot block is made. The upward heating surface is made of copper. Its diameter and nozzle diameter are 80 mm and 2.2 mm, respectively. The velocity of the impinging jet was varied from 0.6 to 2.1 m/s. Saturated water normally impinged on the heating surface, flowed radially, and subsequently dispersed into the atmosphere. The present study clarifies that heat transfer characteristics vary with the temperature of heat transfer surface, and also with the distance from the impinging point.
