In this study, the heat transfer mechanisms in pool saturated boiling of water on a sapphire heat transfer surface with a controlled nucleation site density (NSD) were observed using a high-speed infrared camera. Artificial nucleation sites were arranged on the wall surface by ink-jet printing of a superhydrophobic agent, and NSD was varied between 24 and 318 sites/cm2. The heat transfer characteristics of each fundamental heat transfer process and its contribution to the total wall heat transfer were evaluated through the heat flux partitioning analysis. There was an upper limit to the heat transfer enhancement by increasing the NSD. The boiling heat transfer coefficient (HTC) did not increase monotonically with increasing NSD but had a maximum value at an NSD between 89 and 130 sites/cm2. When NSD was increased excessively, the microlayer formation was inhibited by bubble–bubble interaction. The contribution of the microlayer evaporation to the wall heat transfer also decreased, resulting in a decrease in the boiling HTC. At all tested NSDs, liquid-phase heat transfer dominated the wall heat transfer, as in the case of the bare surface. The contribution of the microlayer evaporation that occupies a small area to the total wall heat transfer was less than 35%. In the high heat flux region, the macrolayer, a liquid layer with suppressed liquid motion, was successfully observed at the bottom of the coalesced bubble.
