Figure 8.

(a) Average height of a collection of droplets with initial d₀ = 50 µm, as a function of time. Full thick line indicates droplet evaporating with turbulence, u_* = 0.01 ms⁻¹ and L = 0.05 m. Full thin line is a non-evaporating droplet in no turbulence (analytical solution derived from equation (4.1)). Dashed line is an evaporating droplet in no turbulence (numerical solution from (4.1) with u = 0). (b) Variation of R/L_E with u_*t/L_E for d₀ = 50 µm with L_E = 0.05 m and u_* = 0.01, 0.02, 0.05 ms⁻¹.
