On the molecular picture and interfacial temperature discontinuity during evaporation and condensation by Chen, Gang

“…Starting from the Boltzmann transport equation, this paper establishes three interfacial boundary conditions to connect the temperature, density, and pressure jumps at the liquid-vapor interface to the interfacial mass and heat fluxes: one for the mass flux (the Schrage equation), one for the heat flux, and the third for the density discontinuities. …”
