Abstract: The interfacial evaporative heat transfer was included in the semi-empirical study of the
heat transfer for the falling liquid film flow. The investigations showed that, the
inclusion of the interfacial evaporative heat transfer in the turbulent model would lower
the predicted convective heat transfer coefficient. Predictions of the new model resulted
in a prominent deviation from that predictions of the normal model in the case of large
mass flow rate and low wall heat flux. This deviation will be decreased with increasing
wall heat flux, such that it will be asymptotic zero at very high wall heat flux.
Predictions of the new model agreed well with the current experimental measurements. This
study has verified that the Reynolds number is not the sole crucial parameter for heat
transfer of falling liquid film flow, and wall heat flux will be another important
independent parameter. This result is consistent with our previous studies.
