Evaporation front and its motion
<p>The evaporation demands upon a rock or soil surface can exceed the ability of the profile to bring a sufficient amount of liquid water. A dry surface layer arises in the porous medium that enables just water vapor flow to the surface. The interface between the dry and wet parts of the profi...

description | <p>The evaporation demands upon a rock or soil surface can exceed the
ability of the profile to bring a sufficient amount of liquid water. A dry surface layer arises in the porous medium that
enables just water vapor flow to the surface. The interface between the
dry and wet parts of the profile is known as the evaporation front.</p>
<p>The paper gives the exact definition of the evaporation front and
studies its motion. A set of differential equations governing the front
motion in space is formulated. Making use of a set of measured and
chosen values, a problem is formulated that illustrates the obtained
theory. The problem is solved numerically, and the results are presented and discussed.</p> |
