Nanoporous structures including single nanopores and nanoporous membranes have been utilized as a platform to study fundamental liquid-vapor phase change heat transfer (PCHT) processes as well as a promising candidate for high flux heat…
The stability of an evaporating thin liquid film on a solid substrate is investigated within lubrication theory. The heat flux due to evaporation induces thermal gradients; the generated Marangoni stresses are accounted for. Assuming the…
In this paper we present a mathematical analysis of thin film flow and heat transfer to a laminar liquid film from a horizontal stretching sheet. The flow of thin liquid film and subsequent heat transfer from the stretching surface is…
The fluid dynamics of the classical dewetting instability in ultrathin films is a non-linear process. However, the physical manifestation of the instability in terms of characteristic length and time scales can be described by a linearized…
Volatile viscous fluids on partially-wetting solid substrates can exhibit interesting interfacial instabilities and pattern formation. We study the dynamics of vapor condensation and fluid evaporation governed by a one-sided model in a low…
The objective of this work is to investigate the coupling of fluid dynamics, heat transfer and mass transfer during the impact and evaporation of droplets on a heated solid substrate. A laser-based thermoreflectance method is used to…
A cold, thin film of liquid impinging on an isothermal hot, horizontal surface has been investigated. An approximate solution for the velocity and temperature distributions in the flow along the horizontal surface is developed, which…
We investigate the role of the evaporation regime on the stability of a volatile liquid film flowing over an inclined heated surface while considering the dynamics of both the liquid phase and the diffusion of its vapor. We (i) modify the…
The evaporation of vapor bubbles inside a microchannel is important to realize a device with high cooling performance. The liquid film formed on the solid surface is essential for evaporative heat transfer from solid to fluid; its formation…
We apply a previously developed asymptotic model (J. Fluid. Mech. 915, A133 (2021)) to study instabilities of free surface films of nanometric thickness on thermally conductive substrates in two and three spatial dimensions. While the…
In this article, we present a model of heat transfer occurring through a li\-quid film flowing down a vertical wall. This new model is formally derived using the method of asymptotic expansions by introducing appropriately chosen…
To explain reported solar interfacial-evaporation rates from porous materials beyond an apparent 100% efficiency using the thermal evaporation mechanism, many publications hypothesize that intermediate water inside porous materials have a…
We consider a free surface thin film placed on a thermally conductive substrate and exposed to an external heat source in a setup where the heat absorption depends on the local film thickness. Our focus is on modeling film evolution while…
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 condensation interface is higher than that at the…
In solution-processing of thin films, the material layer is deposited from a solution composed of several solutes and solvents. The final morphology and hence the properties of the film often depend on the time needed for the evaporation of…
Although ubiquitous in nature and industrial processes, transport processes at the interface during evaporation and condensation are still poorly understood. Experiments have shown temperature discontinuities at the interface during…
Evaporation of a liquid layer on a substrate is examined without the often-used isothermality assumption -- i.e., temperature variations are accounted for. Qualitative estimates show that nonisothermality makes the evaporation rate depend…
We investigate the dynamics of spreading of a small liquid droplet in gas in a one-component simple fluid, where the temperature is inhomogeneous around 0.9Tc and latent heat is released or generated at the interface upon evaporation or…
We perform interface-resolved simulations of finite-size evaporating droplets in weakly-compressible homogeneous shear turbulence (HST). The study is conducted by varying three dimensionless physical parameters: the initial gas temperature…
In this work, we show the short-time existence of solutions of the evolution equations that represent the solid state dewetting of thin films through evaporation-condensation as a two dimensional sharp interface variational model. The…
