Abstract
To enable a more in-depth understanding of the flash evaporation from the downward jet and extend the research range of spray flash evaporation, a mathematical model based on the diffusion-controlled evaporation model was proposed and developed. The droplet motion, droplet size variation and temperature variation are taken into account in the present model. The model was validated against the experimental data sets from literature sources. The temperature variation against the traveled distance was obtained and analyzed. Four variables, namely, flow velocity, pressure attenuation ratio, droplet size and relative humidity, were investigated by means of this model.
