Summary

CONDENSATION HEAT AND MASS TRANSFER TO A LIQUID DROP MOVING IN A MIXTURE OF SATURATED VAPOUR AND A NON-CONDENSABLE HAVE BEEN EVALUATED. THE QUASI-STEADY, COUPLED, BOUNDARY LAYER EQUATIONS FOR THE FLOW FIELD AND THE TRANSPORT IN THE GASEOUS PHASE ARE SIMULTANEOUSLY SOLVED. THE HEAT TRANSPORT INSIDE THE DROP IS TREATED AS A TRANSIENT PROCESS. RESULTS ARE PRESENTED FOR THE HEAT AND MASS TRANSPORT RATES TO THE DROP, THE SURFACE SHEAR STRESS, THE VELOCITY PROFILES ACROSS THE BOUNDARY LAYER, AND THE TEMPERATURE-TIME HISTORY OF THE DROP. THE COMPARISONS OF RESULTS WITH EXPERIMENTAL DATA SHOW EXCELLENT AGREEMENT.
