The term flux, is used to indicate the amount of something crossing a unit area per second. In the case of heat flux, it would be the number of calories or BTU crossing a square meter or foot per second.

How heat flux affects performance of the boiler?

Heat flux is the primary performance paramater in boiler performance. Heat flux can be affected by many factors espacially by boiler tube fouling ( or exchange surfaces) that will considerably reduce heat exchange.


What is critical heat flux and what is its physical significance?

Critical heat flux is the maximum heat transfer rate that can be achieved in a boiling system before there is a significant increase in the wall temperature. It represents a limit beyond which the system may experience burnout or failure due to excessive heat. Understanding critical heat flux is important in designing efficient cooling systems and preventing overheating in various industrial processes.
