Summary

EVAPORATION FROM A FLAT-PLATE SURFACE TO A LAMINAR BOUNDARY LAYER FLOW PAST THE PLATE IS THEORETICALLY ANALYZED, TAKING INTO ACCOUNT THE TWO-DIMENSIONAL THERMAL CONDUCTION IN THE PLATE, WITH THE CONVECTIVE THERMAL-BOUNDARY CONDITION ON THE OTHER PLATE SURFACE. THE THERMAL EFFECT OF THE VOLATILE LIQUID SUPPLY TO THE PLATE IS NEGLECTED. DISTRIBUTIONS OF THE INTERFACIAL TEMPERATURE AND THE LOCAL NUSSELT AND SHERWOOD NUMBERS ARE CALCULATED FOR A PARALLEL FLOW WHERE BOTH PRANDTL AND SCHMIDT NUMBERS ARE EQUAL TO UNITY. THE CHARACTERISTICS IN HEAT AND MASS TRANSFER ARE REVEALED TO BE SIGNIFICANTLY INFLUENCED BY THE TEMPERATURE DEPENDENCY OF THE VAPOUR-LIQUID EQUILIBRIUM, THE MAGNITUDE OF THE LATENT HEAT OF PHASE CHANGE, AND THE THERMAL CONDUCTANCE OF THE FLAT PLATE.
