AB - In this study, the heat transfer mechanism under agitated pool boiling was  examined experimentally. Aqueous sugar solutions were used in a centrically  agitated vessel. The effects of the gap which is between the impeller edge  and the flat bottom of the agitated vessel, the rotational impeller speed and  impeller size were studied on the boiling heat transfer coefficient. A new  Nusselt function depending on the Peclet number was suggested for the heat  transfer mechanism.
