Abstract: | The evaporation from water droplets on artificial soybean leaves was modelled using an energy balance. Observations showed that while droplets were hemispherical initially, they then flattened keeping the base area virtually constant. These observations led to modelling the process as evaporation from a vertical right-circular cylinder which gave excellent agreement with indoor data. |
