Abstract
A numerical study of dynamics and heat/mass transfer in a gas-droplet turbulent boundary layer on a vertical flat plate is carried out. A large number of factors which affect the heat and mass transfer and the structure of thermal and concentration fields in a turbulent boundary layer is analyzed. It is shown that the increase in droplet concentration results in the intensification of heat transfer, as compared with the single-phase air flow. The comparison of this analysis with experimental data shows a qualitative and quantitative agreement between the calculated and experimental data.
