The heat-transfer coefficient for pool film boiling from a horizontal wire was analyzed by subdividing the wire into many cells and analyzing the behavior of a partic ular cell.A cell consists of a vapor dome and the thin annular film around it, and is assumed to be a time-averaged configuration of the actual situation in which vapor domes are growing and vapor is escaping.If it is assumed that the steady-state equations can be applied to the time-averaged
