Abstract

Effects of droplet interactions on vaporization were simulated by evaporation of a droplet inside a “bubble”. Initially the droplet-in-bubble vaporization rate exceeded that of a single droplet. Subsequently vaporization was retarded by cooling and vapor addition. If the bubble was not much larger than the droplet, saturation occurred before complete vaporization. With increasing bubble size the droplet radius at saturation was diminished until complete vaporization ensued. This saturation-complete vaporization transition was sensitive to pressure and initial gaseous temperature and insensitive to volatility and vapor content. A correlation was developed to incorporate interactions into spray vaporization models.
