Popis: An experimental investigation was conducted to measure the true quench temperature using two hot patches to anchor quench fronts. The parametric effects of mass flux (range 50–682 kg m−2 s−1), inlet subcooling (2–30°C), pressure (101–1034 kPa) and local quality ( − 0.0315–0.1990) are discussed. A correlation of true quench temperature in terms of parameters based on present experimental data was formulated. The measure true quench temperature is compared with those available from the literature. A special cold spot test series was conducted to examine the length effect on true quench temperature.
