Which consequence results when rapid vaporization causes the superheated fluid to locally collapse?

A)Nucleate boiling heat transfer diminishes
B)Film boiling heat transfer intensifies
C)Critical heat flux threshold elevates
D)Conduction through laminar layer increases

💡 Explanation

A vapor explosion happens because spontaneous nucleation leads to film boiling; this enwraps the surface, insulating it with vapor, therefore, intensifies film boiling heat transfer rather than fostering efficient nucleate boiling because of increased fluid-solid contact.
