Interfacial cooling and heating, temperature discontinuity and inversion in evaporation and condensation

On paradoxical phenomena during evaporation and condensation between two parallel plates.

Kinetic theory has long predicted that temperature inversion may happen in the vapor-phase for evaporation and condensation between two parallel plates, i.e., the vapor temperature at the…

Evaporative Refrigeration Effect in Evaporation and Condensation between Two Parallel Plates

It is well-known that evaporation can lead to cooling. However, little is known that evaporation can actually create a refrigeration effect, i.e., the vapor phase temperature can drop below the…

Unified theoretical framework for temperature regulation via phase transition.

Phase transition usually consumes or releases energy to produce cooling or heating within different materials, providing a generalized framework for temperature regulation in practical applications.…

A hybrid approach portraying the dynamics of free convection condensation around a circular cylinder

We introduce a hybrid framework to model the fluid dynamics of free convection condensation of saturated steam outside a circular cylinder. The liquid film is modeled analytically, and the adjacent…

Experimental and Numerical Study of the Evaporation of Water at Low Pressures.

A mathematical model is developed to describe the coupling of the heat, mass, and momentum transfer in the fluids with the transport phenomena at the interface and it is shown that an opposing buoyancy flow suppressed the thermocapillary flow in the liquid during evaporation at low pressures in the authors' experiments.

Temperature Discontinuity at an Evaporating Water Interface

Evaporative mass flux is governed by interfacial state of liquid and vapor phases. For closely similar pressures and mass fluxes of liquid water into its own vapor, discontinuity between interfacial…

Interfacial conditions during evaporation or condensation of water.

Steady-state evaporation and condensation experiments have been conducted with water under conditions where buoyancy-driven convection is not present, and the measured interfacial properties are used with the expression for the phase change rate that is obtained from statistical rate theory.

Mean evaporation and condensation coefficients based on energy dependent condensation probability.

Analytical estimates show that the interface temperature jump depends strongly on the temperature gradient of the vapor just in front of the interface, which explains why much larger temperature jumps are observed in spherical geometry and the experiments as compared to planar settings.
