A Theoretical and Experimental Investigation of Evaporation From Drops Containing Nonvolatile Solutes

Abstract

dc:description

The many and varied applications in which droplets are encountered have fostered the development of an extensive body of literature on drop dynamic and thermodynamic behavior. An extensive review of this literature showed that current understanding of the physics of evaporation from drops containing nonvolatile solutes is incomplete, preventing the establishment of viable vaporization models for such drops.
