摘要
A comprehensive analysis of liquid fuel droplet evaporation at supercritical conditions is performed.The numerical model is based on complete time-dependent conservation equations,with a full account of variable thermophysical properties and vapor-liquid interfacial thermodynamics.And the model employs the Peng-Robinson(PR)equation of state(EOS).As a specific example,problems involving n-heptane droplet in nitrogen gas are investigated.The results indicate that the increase of ambient pressure and temperature results in the increase of surface temperature rise rate and surface regression rate.The transition from subcritical state to supercritical state can occur at the droplet surface when the droplet evaporates in a strongly supercritical environment.
A comprehensive analysis of liquid fuel droplet evaporation at supercritical conditions is performed. The numerical model is based on complete time-dependent conservation equations, with a full account of variable thermophysical properties and va- por-liquid interfacial thermodynamics. And the model employs the Peng-Robinson （PR） equation of state （EOS）. As a specific example, problems involving n-heptane droplet in nitrogen gas are investigated. The results indicate that the increase of ambi- ent pressure and temperature results in the increase of surface temperature rise rate and surface regression rate. The transition from subcritical state to supercritical state can occur at the droplet surface when the droplet evaporates in a strongly supercritical environment.
