Evaporation of multiple droplets

H Masoud, PD Howell, HA Stone - Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 2021 - cambridge.org
We derive an accurate estimate for the diffusive evaporation rates of multiple droplets of
different sizes and arbitrary contact angles placed on a horizontal substrate. The derivation …

Sessile drop evaporation in a gap–crossover between diffusion-limited and phase transition-limited regime

S Hartmann, C Diddens, M Jalaal… - Journal of Fluid …, 2023 - cambridge.org
