Summary

A numerical analysis is performed to investigate the effects of the presence of combined composition and temperature gradient induced natural convection for evaporation from an open-topped tube which is partially filled with a liquid. Numerical solutions were carried out for water as the evaporation vapour and air as the gas. Results were presented in terms of streamlines and isotherms as well as isohaline distributions. Numerical data show that there is no definite distribution among these three distributions as Grashof number for mass transfer is increased. However, the change seems to follow a definite trend and it is reasonable.
