Abstract

We have seen how modelling of drop evaporation implies the solution of a set of PDEs (momentum, energy and species conservation), which may represent a remarkable challenge, particularly when an analytical approach is chosen. The problem can be greatly simplified introducing some assumptions, like sphericity of the drop, constancy of the thermo-physical properties and steadiness.
