Abstract

Numerical and experimental papers on the enhancement of evaporation from liquid surfaces due to the electrohydrodynamic flow are reviewed in this work. Impressive advances have been obtained during the last two decades in the augmentation of evaporation from liquid surfaces due to electrohydrodynamic flow, especially through numerical simulations. This flow is generated by the electric corona discharge in ambient gas, which is produced by the application of a high dc voltage to a sharp electrode. In all studies, sharp electrodes were placed over the liquid surface and enhancement in evaporation rate was observed. Different water models were proposed in the numerical simulations, but only the conducting models are physically correct.
