UDF for heating and evaporation of an n-dodecane/isooctane/water droplet

UDF for heating and evaporation of an n-dodecane droplet

ANSYS Fluent UDF for defining the heat and mass transport for n-dodecane droplet. Has been tested with ANSYS Fluent 17.2.

Physical properties are taken from:

Abramzon, B. and W.A. Sirignano, Droplet Vaporization Model for Spray Combustion Calculations. International Journal of Heat and Mass Transfer, 1989. 32(9): p. 1605-1618.
