The current study investigates evaporation of liquid hydrocarbons from a circular well cavity small depth. Gravimetric analysis is performed to measure the rate and digital holographic interferometry used for measurement normalized mole fraction profile inside vapor cloud above well. Phase unwrapping has been implemented obtain continuous phase distribution in image plane. Fourier–Hankel tomographic inversion algorithm refractive index change object plane, i.e., cloud. Four hydrocarbons,...
Abstract Detailed characterization of the vapor cloud above a well or reservoir is not available in literature irrespective its several practical importance. This study aims to understand characteristics and phase transport heavier-than-air evaporating from heated microliter circular reservoir. Evaporation heavy hydrocarbon (cyclohexane) comparatively lighter fluid (ethanol) studied. Digital holographic interferometry has been used for cloud. Gravimetric analysis measurement evaporation rate...
Abstract Abstract: The present study aims to understand the evaporation dynamics of heavy hydrocarbon liquid (cyclohexane) from a circular well cavity under influence corona wind. Particle image velocimetry is used characterize velocity field wind generated by needle and plate configuration. Digital holography interferometry decipher mole fraction distribution vapor cloud. Circular cavities radius 2.0, 2.5 4 mm are studied. explores effect on modification phase transport rate well. different...
Abstract Thin film evaporative cooling is one of the liquid technologies, capable removing high heat flux with lower junction temperature due to utilization latent vaporization. To understand various transport processes involved in vapour phase during thin evaporation, evaporation from a heated well cavity diameter 3 mm and height 2 studied using Digital holographic interferometry technique. A flat disk-shaped cloud appeared for as not- surface case. This signifies radial outward natural...
