Surface tension influences on methanol droplet vaproiation in the presence of water

A computational model has been developed to study the influences of both temperature-and mass-fraction-driven surface tension forces on the transient vaporization of a methanol droplet in a hot environment containing water vapor. The model is based on the Navier-Stokes equations and includes variable transport and thermodynamic properties as well as simultaneous condensitation and vaporization. Numerical simulations have been carried out for...
