Abstract
An experimental study has been performed with a single liquid-vapor meniscus
formed in a vertical channel of 600 µm width between two flat parallel plates. A 10 µm thick
stainless steel heating foil forms a part of one of the flat plates. HFE7100 was used as test
fluid. Liquid is sucked into the gap between the plates due to capillary forces and evaporates
inside the gap under steady state conditions. The high evaporation rates in the vicinity of the
3-phase contact line lead to high temperature gradients along the heating foil
formed in a vertical channel of 600 µm width between two flat parallel plates. A 10 µm thick
stainless steel heating foil forms a part of one of the flat plates. HFE7100 was used as test
