Fractionation Research, Inc. (FRI) recently installed two windows on an industrial-size kettle reboiler.  Using those windows, data were collected regarding pool depths, entrainment, flow patterns and nucleation sites.  Several binary systems were employed.  A wide range of steam pressures were employed.  Video footage will be shown.
