ON THE EVAPORATION OF FALLING DROPS,

Abstract

A theoretical and experimental investigation of the evaporation of a falling drop was made. The drops were placed on a thin glass rod or a thermoelement, and an air-current from a wind-tunnel was blown from below. The evaporation was measured by photographing the drops repeatedly on increased scale. The radius of the drops was 0.1-0.9 mm., the wind velocity 0.2-7 m/sec and the Reynolds number 2-800. Examined liquids: Nitrobenzene, aniline and water. (Author)
