Abstract
A theoretical dimensionless correlation for the vaporization times of discrete liquid masses in the Leidenfrost state is presented and verified experimentally with data in the literature. The correlation is presented as a single curve relating a dimensionless vaporization time to a dimensionless initial liquid volume. The correlation works well for the entire gamut of initial liquid volumes from spherical drops to large pancaked blobs for which experimental data exist.Keywords
