A fluid in the NVT ensemble at T less than the critical temperature T_c and rho = N/V somewhat in excess of rho_coex (density of the saturated gas in the gas-liquid transition) is considered. For V->infinity, a macroscopic liquid droplet…
Evaporation of a liquid drop surrounded by either vapor of the same fluid, or vapor and air, is usually attributed to vapor diffusion -- which, however, does not apply to the former setting, as pure fluids do not diffuse. The present paper…
We consider liquid-vapor systems in finite volume $V\subset\R^d$ at parameter values corresponding to phase coexistence and study droplet formation due to a fixed excess $\delta N$ of particles above the ambient gas density. We identify a…
Droplet vaporization has a great impact on combustion of liquid fuels and might greatly affects the engine performance. Physical understanding and theoretical interpretation of the droplet vaporization behavior are decisive to constitute…
The study of vapor bubble growth following droplet vaporization in a superheated liquid involves research areas such as hydrodynamics, heat transfer, mass transfer, and thermodynamics. The interplay between these multiscale aspects is…
Despite its importance in geological sciences, our understanding of interactions between gas and condensed phases (comprising solids and liquids) remains clouded by the fact that, often, only indirect evidence remains for their occurrence.…
Saliva is primarily composed of water, but additionally includes a variety of organic and inorganic substances such as salt, proteins, peptides, mucins, virions, etc. The presence of such solutes affects the evaporation time of respiratory…
The multivariable theory of nucleation [N. V. Alekseechkin, J. Chem. Phys. 124, 124512 (2006)] is applied to the droplet nucleation in a supersaturated single-component vapor; the droplet volume V, temperature T, and volume change rate…
Drops of water at room temperature were released in hot oil, which had a temperature higher than that of the boiling point of water. Initially, the drop temperature increases slowly mainly due to heat transfer diffusion; convective heat…
The formation of small droplets and bubbles in turbulent flows is a crucial process in geophysics and engineering, whose underlying physical mechanism remains a puzzle. In this letter, we address this problem by means of high-resolution…
An analytical description of nucleation stage in a supersaturated vapor with instantly created supersaturation is given with taking into account the vapor concentration inhomogeneities arising as a result of depletion due to non-stationary…
We theoretically investigate the droplets formation in a tightly trapped one-dimensional dipolar gas of bosonic atoms. When the strength of the dipolar interaction becomes sufficiently attractive compared to the contact one, we show how a…
The mass of a bubble in a fluid can be taken as the mass of the vapor in it. The self-energy of the bubble is defined as the work performed against the pressure of the fluid in order to create the bubble. Taking the vapor to be an ideal gas…
The effect of evaporation on droplet sedimentation times is crucial for estimating the risk of infection from virus-containing airborne droplets. For droplet radii in the range 100 nm < R < 60 {\mu}m, evaporation can be described in the…
In the current work, we develop a single droplet model to describe particle formation in multicomponent-liquid droplet combustion. Both the gas-to-particle conversion and droplet-to-particle conversion routes of different solution…
This work presents analytical formulas derived for evaluating vapor transport of a volatile solvent for an isolated multicomponent droplet in a quiescent environment, based on quasi-steady-state approximation. Among multiple solvent…
An analysis of the projectile motion in stagnant air is presented for an evaporating respiratory micro-droplet which has been ejected from the mouth as an isolated droplet. It is assumed that the air resistance is a nonlinear function of…
There hardly is a fluid mechanics phenomenon attracting more attention than the impact of a droplet, due to its undeniable beauty, many applications and the numerous challenges it poses. One of the crucial factors turns out to be the…
The production of small fluid droplets relies on an instability of solutions to the Young-Laplace equation. We ask whether smaller droplets can be produced by changing the shape of the nozzle. At a given critical pressure, the circular…
We report results of a detailed experimental investigation into the drying of sessile droplets of aqueous poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) polymer solutions under various experimental conditions. Samples are prepared with a range of initial…
