ABSTRACT
We present the first experimental observations of scale-free behavior in the bubble footprint distribution during the boiling crisis of water, in pool and flow boiling conditions. We formulate a continuum percolation model that elucidates how the scale-free behavior emerges from the near-wall stochastic interaction of bubbles and provides a criterion to predict the boiling crisis. It also offers useful insights on how to engineer surfaces that enhance the critical heat flux limit.
