# BoilingBench Multimodal Pool-boiling and immersion-cooling experiments pairing high-speed or infrared video with thermal and acoustic sensing, as native `.mcap` episodes. A copper surface is driven past the onset of boiling while a high-speed camera watches from the side and a hydrophone, a microphone and an acoustic-emission sensor listen. Boiling changes character before it changes appearance, and the sensor streams carry a recorded clock offset against the temperature acquisition, so the sound and the surface temperature sit on one timeline. Each pool-boiling episode carries surface temperature and heat flux, the four embedded thermocouples, acoustic band power and characteristic frequencies per sensor, per-hit acoustic-emission parameters, and the release’s derived markers stamped where they were found: departure from nucleate boiling, the surface temperature peak, the critical-heat-flux marker and the DC power start and shutoff. Every episode but the hydrophone reference run also carries the camera. Two closed-loop immersion-cooling runs are carried alongside them, recorded in infrared with HFE-7100 and water. Seven episodes and 1.72 hours of recording, holding 389,483 camera frames, 3,392,459 thermal samples and 171,970 acoustic-emission hits. The critical-heat-flux figures are the release’s own screening markers rather than validated measurements, and each episode carries the source’s `chf_event_status` beside them. The high-speed camera carries no clock offset of its own, so its frames are placed by scaling container time onto the run and those episodes record the `video_time_scale` they were placed with. The infrared frames carry their own timestamps. **Details** - Dataset name: `boilingbench-multimodal` - Dataset source: [https://huggingface.co/datasets/Voxel51/BoilingBench-Multimodal](https://huggingface.co/datasets/Voxel51/BoilingBench-Multimodal) - Dataset size: 2.90 GB - Dataset license: CC BY 4.0 - Tags: `multimodal, mcap, heat-transfer, acoustic, thermal` - Supported splits: `N/A` - ZooDataset class: [`BoilingBenchMultimodalDataset`](../../api/fiftyone.zoo.datasets.base.md#fiftyone.zoo.datasets.base.BoilingBenchMultimodalDataset) **Example usage** Python CLI ```python import fiftyone as fo import fiftyone.zoo as foz dataset = foz.load_zoo_dataset("boilingbench-multimodal") # The runs that reached the highest wall temperature view = dataset.sort_by("max_surface_temp_C", reverse=True) session = fo.launch_app(dataset, view=view) ``` ```shell fiftyone zoo datasets load boilingbench-multimodal fiftyone app launch boilingbench-multimodal ```
