Abstract
A simplified set of equations is examined for the problem of droplet evaporation. The equations employ the Clausius–Clapeyron (CC) boundary condition for the surface fuel-vapor, which is responsible for mathematical behaviors that include an initial condensation stage of droplet swelling followed by an evaporation stage. Numerical methods of analysis are used in conjunction with an asymptotic analysis of each of the three stages: (I) condensation; (II) transition; and (III) evaporation. Droplet evaporation in partial condensation environments is discussed.
