Determination of the quench velocity and rewetting temperature of hot surfaces. I: Analytical solution of the micro-scale hydrodynamic model. II: An integrated approach of hydrodynamic-thermodynamic micro- and macro-scale models (Q5932065)

In part I, a hydrodynamic micro-scale model is used to solve the non-isothermal interface equation which accounts for effects of evaporation, thermo-capillary and intermolecular forces. In part II, the authors present a new integrated approach, comprising hydrodynamic-thermo-dynamic micro- and macro-scale models, for the analysis of rewetting systems. This work, which completes the determination of quench velocity and rewetting temperature on hot surfaces, gives a description of thermo-physical properties of solid-liquid-vapor systems and their operating conditions.
