Nonstationary diffusion flow to a moving drop at low Reynolds numbers

  • Published:
Journal of engineering physics Aims and scope

Abstract

The process of nonstationary convective diffusion to a moving drop at low Re is examined. Equations for the dimensionless diffusion flow Nu to the surface of the drop and for the length of the nonstationary region and the time required for the establishment of steady-state diffusion conditions are obtained.
