چکیده
We derive an accurate estimate for the diffusive evaporation rates of multiple droplets different sizes and arbitrary contact angles placed on a horizontal substrate. The derivation, which is based combination Green's second identity method reflections, simply makes use solution single droplet. theoretical results can serve as guide future computational experimental studies collective arrays droplets, well similar multi-body, diffusion-dominated transport problems.

Evaporation of inclined water droplets
When a drop is placed on a flat substrate tilted at an inclined angle, it can be deformed by gravity and its initial contact angle divides into front and rear contact angles by inclination. Here we study on evaporation dynamics of a pure water droplet on a flat solid substrate by controlling substrate inclination and measuring mass and volume changes of an evaporating droplet with time. We find...
متن کاملEvaporation of freely suspended single droplets
Evaporation is ubiquitous in nature. This process influences the climate, the formation of clouds, transpiration in plants, the survival of arctic organisms, the efficiency of car engines, the structure of dried materials and many other phenomena. Recent experiments discovered two novel mechanisms accompanying evaporation: temperature discontinuity at the liquid–vapour interface during evaporat...
متن کاملCompetitive evaporation in arrays of droplets
We consider the evaporation of periodic arrays of initially equal droplets in two-dimensional systems with open ~absorbing! boundaries. Our study is based on the numerical solution of the Cahn-Hilliard equation. We show that due to cooperative effects the droplets which are further from the boundary may evaporate earlier than those in the boundary’s vicinity. The time evolution of the overall a...
متن کاملEvaporation of droplets on strongly hydrophobic substrates.
The manner in which the extreme modes of droplet evaporation (namely, the constant contact radius and the constant contact angle modes) become indistinguishable on strongly hydrophobic substrates is described. Simple asymptotic expressions are obtained which provide good approximations to the evolutions of the contact radius, the contact angle, and the volume of droplets evaporating in the extr...
متن کاملCalculation of Evaporation Rate of a Droplets Cluster and Conceptual Design of a Structure Utilizing Water Droplets for Evaporation
It has been known that workers of a honey bee colony bring water droplets into their hive, spraying it on the frames and brood cells, and fanning their wings when ambient temperature rises higher than appropriate. Meanwhile several species from Namibian beetles demonstrate unique water harvesting strategies from the morning fog via the bumps and troughs above their elytra, where water droplets ...
