• A Review of Condensation Frosting (2017, background): “Previous models positing that vapor supersaturation is required for frost growth [3, 80, 104] yield a vapor pressure over ice that exceeds the saturation vapor pressure of water at the same temperature.”
• Surface engineering for phase change heat transfer: A review (2014, background): “m is maximum at r*, and only the nuclei with >r* will grow spontaneously r 53. In engineering systems, the incipience of boiling corresponds to the production of stable vapor nuclei at a rate J of [103, 104, 105, 106, 107] cm-3s-1, with J depending 5 exponentially on the ratio of the free energy ”
