Single droplet, evaporation-burning

Theoretical modeling of single-droplet combustion has provided expressions for evaporation and burning times of the droplets and the subsequent coke particles. A more thorough treatment of this topic is available (88,91—93,98). 

The previous developments also can be used to determine the burning rate, or evaporation coefficient, of a single droplet of fuel burning in a quiescent atmosphere. In this case, the mass fraction of the fuel, which is always considered to be the condensed phase, will be designated mr, and the mass fraction of the oxidizer ma. m0 is the oxidant mass fraction exclusive of inerts and i is...
