... from a balance between surface tension and buoyancy forces. It reasonably predicts vapor bubble sizes for certain conditions [ 36 ] but performs poorly for more well-wetting surfaces [ 37 ]. Additionally, a major limitation of Eq. (2) is that it does not account for the orifice size, and hence...
