ABSTRACT
The whole new field that opens up is where the gas is present in relatively large amounts, and now the nucleation and phase change represent not the ebullition of the liquid, which in this case mainly acts as a carrier solvent for the dissolved gas, but the appearance of bubbles of the previously dissolved gas itself, with a lesser contribution from the vapor pressure of the solvent. Of course, there is a continuum of behavior from pure boiling in a single com-ponent system consisting of the liquid, through the bubble evolution of es-sentially the pure gas from solution-and this continuity is reflected in the mathematical description of the process, with essentially one equation des-cribing both extremes.
