Résumé

Evaporation is critical for cooling and water purification. Spray evaporators demonstrate advantages over conventional evaporators, including higher rates of heat and mass transfer. In this study, a model for evaporation of saltwater is developed and applied to an evaporator. Energy and species equations are solved in a spherical coordinate system with a moving boundary to determine the temperature and salt concentration within an evaporating droplet. A droplet distribution function is used in conjunction with the model to elucidate the characteristics of the entire flow. Evaporator performance is calculated as a function of inlet temperature, salt concentration, and spray properties. Evaporator size and power requirements are compared with those of conventional evaporators. Based on the simulations, it is shown that using a spray evaporator in a refrigeration cycle using salt water in the evaporator delivers water to the conditioned space heat exchanger at a lower temperature while still requiring low pumping power.
