Evaporation of micro-liter drops from solid surfaces at room condition is mainly governed by diffusion. Therefore, there should be no difference between evaporation rate of sessile and pendant drops. However, some studies indicate a difference and explain the difference using buoyancy. The objective here is to reconcile the inconsistency in the literature. For that, first, by comparing two iden...

A spraying evaporation system applied to brine disposal is reported, which is mainly used for disposing the brine with concentration more than 100,000 mg/L. A computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation has been carried out to study the brine droplet evaporation and diffusion process in high temperature air flow. A discrete-phase model in spraying evaporation system is developed and a simulat...

Quantitative measurements on the field evaporation of GaP(l11) planes in the presence of hydrogen have been carried out using a field ion microscope. Below room temperature, the evaporation rate was found t o decrease wi th increasing temperature, while above room temperature it steeply increased. The evaporation volta e was found t o increase with increasing temperature up t o room temperature...

We investigate the kinetics of constant-kernel aggregation which is augmented by either: (a) evaporation of monomers from finite-mass clusters , or (b) continuous cluster growth – i. e., condensation. The rate equations for these two processes are analyzed using both exact and asymptotic methods. In aggregation-evaporation, if the evaporation is mass conserving, i. e., the monomers which evapor...

The phenomenon of capillary condensation is studied through the weight change of condensed phase in an internally wetted porous pd catalyst pellet during the course of exothermic reacation of cyclohexane hydrogenation in a thermogravimetric analyzer (TGA). The direct measurement of condensed phase indicates that evaporation of condensed phase is confined to the macropores of catalyst pellet at ...

during recent years oil products has decreased because of growing population and increasing demand to oil products and decreasing of crude oil extraction at compare to export. however, to achieve suitable levels of production, the use of improved technologies should be considered. another way to prevent the evaporation and leakage from oil storage tanks and their products are using of storage t...

The purpose of this paper is to estimate the evaporation rate in the purification of wastewater by aquatic plants with aeration. Evaporation of surface water is important in dewatering processes. In particular, this is true in arid climates, where evaporation rates are high. Aeration is known to enhance the wastewater purification process, but it increases concurrently the water evaporation rat...

Various concepts for oil evaporation prediction are summarized. Models can be divided into those models that use the basis of air-boundary-regulation or those that do not. Experiments were conducted to determine if oil and petroleum evaporation is regulated by the saturation of the air boundary layer. Experiments included the examination of the evaporation rate with and without wind, in which c...

The invisible inks have many applications, including the use of banknote printing, code load, securitydocuments and much of its application in the exchange of security information. Photoluminescenceproperties of lanthanide compounds that attracted the attention of many scholars in recent decades are one ofthe important factors in drying and fluidity of the ink. The solvent eva...
