摘要

The surface temperature of sessile droplets can significantly affect its evaporation rate and inside flow field. Empirical expression for the surface temperature in the literature usually was derived from the one-sided model, which neglect the effect of temperature drop of droplet surface on evaporation rate. Numerical simulation and infrared experiment are carried out to investigate the characteristic of surface temperature of evaporating sessile water droplets in this study. The two-sided model coupled with the interaction between mass evaporation and heat transfer at liquid-gas interface is numerically solved by finite element method. An infrared thermography combined with a CCD camera is used to capture the surface temperature distributions of droplets under different contact angles. The results show that the one-sided model is not applicable for predicting the surface temperature of droplet with large contact angle due to the overestimated evaporation rate. Compared to the experimental result, the previous empirical expression can overestimate the maximum temperature drop of droplet surface by 45%, while the predicted deviation of present model is 9.1%. The numerical and experimental results also show that the surface temperature drop of droplet is dominated by the contact angle rather than the contact radius, which is validated by the experimental results.
