Abstract
The dynamics and heat and mass exchange of a vapor bubble containing a heated particle is studied in relation to the problem of vapor explosions. It is shown that the process involves two stages: dynamic stage and thermal stage. The dynamic stage is characterized by pressure fluctuations and a rapid increase in the thickness of the vapor layer. It is shown that the simplifying assumptions of the constancy of assumptions of constant heat conductivity of the vapor and linear temperature profile in the vapor layer lead to qualitatively incorrect results.
