Abstract

A linear theory of propagation of spherical and cylindrical disturbances in polydisperse gas-vapor-drop mixtures is developed. Unsteady and non-equilibrium effects in the interphase mass, momentum, and energy exchange are taken into account. A general dispersion relation determining the propagation of plane, spherical, and cylindrical harmonic disturbances in polydisperse gas-vapor-drop systems is obtained. Using the fast Fourier transform, the propagation of pulse disturbances of different shapes in mixtures of air with water vapor and water drops is calculated. The effect of the geometry and interphase heat and mass transfer on the evolution of weak pulses in polydisperse air fogs is investigated.
