AB - In the paper are presented the results using the authors own model to predict  heat transfer coefficient during flow boiling. The model has been tested  against a large selection of experimental data to investigate the  sensitivity of the in-house developed model. In the work are presented the  results of calculations obtained using the semi-empirical model on selected  experimental flow boiling data of the refrigerants: R134a, R1234yf, R600a,  R290, NH3, CO2, R236fa, R245fa, R152a, and HFE7000. In the present study,  particular attention was focused on the influence of reduced pressure on  the predictions of the theoretical model. The main purpose of this paper is  to show the effect of the reduced pressure on the predictions of heat  transfer during flow boiling.
